Tom Bolvin, seeking his third term in the House of Delegates, demonstrates that he values the quality of life in Northern Virginia. He has offered a flexible approach to revenue restructuring, without catering to the campaign rhetoric of tax caps or no-tax pledges.

Bolvin chairs two subcommittees with local implications, one on education and teachers, another on road and vehicle safety. He sponsored legislation on child safety seats which makes small children safer in cars, working with some legislators from more rural parts of the county who think children should be able to ride in the back of pickup trucks.

Bolvin has been active in the community, and employs a full-time legislative aide to assist with constituent service.
