I join all Virginians in extending our condolences to the family, friends and teammates of Petty Officer First Class Nicolas Checque. He was a decorated combat veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, and we respect and appreciate his heroic service on behalf of our nation.Mark Warner shared a link.
"Think about the worker who gets only two hours off to vote and must decide whether to risk the wrath of his employer when the line at the polls takes longer than that. Or the working mother who worries about facing late fees if she doesn’t...make it to a booth before she is supposed to pick up her children at day care. Such costs amount to a modern-day poll tax. They must be eliminated." - Senator Warner and Congressman Gerry Connolly in the Washington Post this weekendSee More- Glad to have been in Norfolk today to watch Old Dominion take on Georgia Southern. Proud of the Monarchs for a great season!

On the anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack, I salute Mr. Clay Broga, a native Virginian, on his documentary Honor Flight The Movie. This story honors heroes, like my own father, who fought at Iwo Jima during World War II. It tells a sto...ry about a community coming together to thank our veterans by flying them to the World War II Memorial in Washington, DC. For many, now in their late 80s and early 90s, this is the first time they have been thanked for their heroic service to our country.See More
Honor Flight will premiere tomorrow at the The Byrd Theatre & Foundation in Richmond. To get screening information, I encourage you to visit honorflightatthebyrd.eventbrite.com. There is no charge for World War II / Korean War Veterans.

Senator Warner was pleased to play a small role in Intelsat's decision to move to Northern Virginia, as the Washington Business Journal reports: “Intelsat S.A.’s move to Tysons started innocently enough with a visit from Virginia Sen. Mark ...Warner to the satellite provider’s D.C. headquarters. As Warner’s tour ended, Intelsat CEO David McGlade commented to the Senator that the satellite giant has a tough decision to make, between Maryland and Virginia… Moments later, McGlade said…he got a call from Governor Bob McDonnell, touting Virginia and asking what he could do to lure Intelsat to the Commonwealth.” (staff)See MoreMark Warner shared a link.
“I spent a lot of time around markets,” said Senator Warner, a venture capitalist and former co-founder of the company that became Nextel. “I believe that if we get a real plan that passes the market smell test and hits that $4 trillion mark, it will do more for job activity and economic growth than anything.” (staff)Mark Warner shared a link.

The Virginia Chamber of Commerce is a powerful voice for the statewide business community, and in a keynote speech to its Economic Summit today, Senator Warner emphasized the important role that members could play in urging other members of Congress to compromise on a bipartisan solution. “If you ran a business by just pointing out what’s wrong with your competition, you’d be out of business,” Senator Warner said.
