[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is shameful. For all the posters claiming Youngkin is good for the economy and for him to willfully not put in the effort to help Virginia get the new FBI headquarters is horrible. Wouldn't winning this project bring millions of dollars into the economy (in construction and employment, plus supporting services), as well as thousands of jobs.

From WaPo: "Because of the governor’s irresponsible behavior, now Virginia is going to lose out on potentially millions of dollars of economic activity. It’s really sad that the governor chose to attack the FBI as opposed to doing his job and looking out for the commonwealth of Virginia. He chose to protect MAGA Republicans and Trump’s agenda."

The three personal panel that made the decision unanimously picked Virginia, and then one GSA person overruled them (which is unheard of) and picked Maryland instead. Screw Youngkin. He panders to the national audience and Virginians get ignored.

This is awful.  [/quote]

That is not "from WaPo", it is from Virginia House Minority Leader Don L. Scott Jr. (D-Portsmouth) [u]in[/u] WaPo. Good grief.

And the "one GSA person" who made the decision happens to be THE PERSON WHOSE JOB IT IS TO MAKE THE DECISION.[/quote]
