Public Comments for 01/16/2025 General Laws - Professions/Occupations and Administrative Process
HB1578 - Office of the State Inspector General; behavioral health and developmental services; required reports.
Prior to my retirement, I was Staff Director of a major subcommittee of the US House of Representatives, and my immediate boss was Congressman Jon Porter, who represented: LAS VEGAS, NEVADA. And Jon used to tell me, "Ron, I never go into those places because I figured out a long time ago how they pay for them." And, of course he was saying casinos are NOT money losers for the house. Every time lawmakers seem to want new laws that govern behavior they send us deeper into the swamp of moral rot and decay, not to mention teaching our children to use drugs and engage in promiscuous behavior, all of which are destructive to our neighborhoods, cities, states, and most important, our Nation. Encouraging "striking it rich" and "I'll beat the odds" activity causes individuals and families to sacrifice limited incomes on the pipe dream that they will be "more lucky, next time." Do NOT impose this new scourge on us--NO CASINO in Fairfax County. Ron Martinson 703 354-3997
HB1632 - Data Governance and Analytics, Office of; changes oversight of office to VITA.

I support this bill as these programs have proven to be incredibly effective in deterring gun violence. Grants would be funded by the taxes on firearms and ammo proposed in HB2558 Lopez.
HB1567 - Virginia Economic Development Partnership Authority; operational plan submission.
