This makes clear and obvious business sense. This proposal will extend healthcare to many individuals and children thhat need it, with no extra cost to the taxpayer. It will help attract and keep top employees in Virginia. I hope our new 'jobs' governor realizes this is a win for Virginia.

Aside from being business smart, this bill finally offers some equality to LGBT Virginians. We have been overlooked and voted down far too often (like the nasty Marshall-Newman constitutional amendment and the abuse of Tim Kaine's executive order banning employment discrimination), and for many, having affordable healthcare is a top priority and will make a real change in their quality of life.

I'm all for it.

Thank you, Tim Kaine, and everyone that has worked hard to make this bill pass.
