We have cut red tape to provide a land transfer that supports the Craney Island expansion – a port expansion project that will strengthen Virginia’s economy and support thousands of jobs. In addition, we protected funding for Bay oyster restoration efforts, which will help restore the health of the Bay while also generating income for Virginia’s working watermen.
