RICHMOND – Radford Mayor David Horton has been appointed to Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger’s transition committee.
Spanberger announced the selection of her “United for Virginia’s Future” transition committee on Friday, Nov. 14.
“Under the leadership of the transition co-chairs, the committee will help lay the groundwork of Governor-elect Spanberger’s administration focused on lowering costs, expanding economic opportunity, increasing business investment in Virginia’s economy, and creating a safer Commonwealth for all Virginia families,” the governor-elect announced.
“These Virginians not only bring together deep ties from across every region of our Commonwealth, but the experience, integrity, and know-how required to deliver the pragmatic and principled leadership that Virginians overwhelmingly voted for this November,” said Spanberger. “These leaders are united for one purpose: putting Virginia first. They will help ensure my administration is ready on day one to begin saving Virginians money, protecting Virginia’s jobs and small businesses, and strengthening the security of our Commonwealth.”
“I am incredibly humbled and honored to have been asked to serve on the Transition Committee for Governor-Elect Abigail Spanberger,” Horton announced on social media. “I look forward to serving with outstanding leaders from across the Commonwealth and to being a voice for Radford, the NRV, and Southwest Virginia as she assembles her administration.”
