Message from Glenn

Our thoughts and prayers are with the families affected by the tornadoes in Suffolk, Colonial Heights and Brunswick County. I also wish to offer my support to the brave men and women in first responder units as they work to rescue those who have been injured and help the families that have had their homes destroyed.

In the coming days and weeks, the full breadth of this disaster will be felt by hundreds of Virginia's families. I hope you will join with me, if you can, in making a donation to the Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund, so that we may all do our part to help our neighbors that have lost their homes.

As a diplomat and international development consultant, I have worked to serve my country and share the best of America -- the dream of accountable government and an economic system that yields broad prosperity. But lately our leaders have drifted away from our core values in our approach to the world, alienated friends, and neglected to make the investments in America that will strengthen us at home and ensure American leadership over the coming decades.

Washington is torn by partisanship and focused on the wrong priorities. To change course we need leaders who will think independently and work for practical solutions to real challenges. That's why I am running for Congress.

It's time for America to once again be the country the world looks up to. America should lead, and we will lead -- we will lead in providing access to affordable quality healthcare; we will lead in educating a society that will compete in a global marketplace; we will lead with American ingenuity in creating alternative energy sources; we will lead in investing in our infrastructure; and we will lead in creating economic prosperity for all.

I hope you will join me and be a part of this campaign. Together, we can fix Washington and help change our country so it works for all Americans.

Glenn Nye

Candidate for Congress, Virginia 2^nd District

A fresh start. A new generation of leadership.
