The Alexandria Sunrise Optimists Club welcomed David as their guest speaker at the Belle Haven Country Club this morning to give them an update on the 2009 session of the General Assembly. David briefed them on the state budget, the statewide ban on smoking in restaurants and bars, and other legislative issues.
“I always enjoy spending time with the Sunrise Optimists, not only because of their positive outlook, but also because I share their belief in the importance of investing in children,” said David.
After David’s prepared remarks, the group discussed issues ranging from transportation funding to the recent Alexandria City Council vote to move local elections from May to November.
