Help Elect Candidates Who Support Virginia's Public Schools

The 2019 statewide election will set the stage for our public schools for years to come. Those we elect to the state Senate and House of Delegates hold the power to help—or harm—Virginia students and those who educate them. Learn who we’re recommending for office and make a voluntary donation to the VEA Fund now!
