Here are some important points about Brian:
Public Service - Brian has been in public service (in Virginia) his entire professional life. First as a prosecutor in Arlington and then as a state Delegate and leader in the Virginia Assembly. Brian has spent 20 years fighting for the people of Virginia.
Dealing with Gridlock - The House of Delegates is our biggest road block in Virginia. In addition to Democratic and Republican differences, there are regional differences. Brian is the only candidate who spent the last 12 years in the House of Delegates and is best suited to deal with the gridlock to get legislation passed as governor.
Renewable Energy and Jobs - Brian Moran was the first candidate to call for a 25% renewable energy mandate and is the only candidate to show his commitment to renewable energy by opposing offshore drilling and the new coal plant in Surry, near Williamsburg. This is what we need to create the most new green jobs to both help our economy and clean our environment.
Energy Efficiency and Jobs - Brian is the only candidate fighting for "decoupling," which means changing the way profits are calculated by electric companies. Right now, the more electricity we use, the more money the electric companies make. Decoupling would create incentives to implement large scale energy efficiency programs like weatherization, retro and new green building codes, energy star appliance standards and passive solar, which are the least expensive options that would also create jobs.
A recent independent study showed that Virginia can recover 19% of our electricity by implementing efficiency programs already being used by other states. Brian is the only candidate who understands we have to make bold moves now to create enough green jobs to both help our economy and clean our environment.
Equality - Brian is the only candidate for governor who voted and campaigned against the Marshall-Newman Amendment in 2006 and is the only candidate who has said he will fight to reverse what stands as the worst example of institutionalized discrimination in the US.
Public Safety - Brian lead the fight to expand funding for police to crack down on child sex predators with Alicia's Law. There is a great video clip of Brian speaking on the House floor appealing to other members to walk the walk on public safety. It is a great example of how Brian puts his head and heart into what he does. Go to Youtube and search for "Brian Moran Walk the Walk" and watch the whole thing, Brian get's wound up about half way through.
