Is there something you would like addressed in the Virginia General Assembly this year? Your local Virginia General Assembly members want to know.

There are several opportunities to speak with Del, Ken Plum (D-Reston) and Sen. Janet Howell (D-Reston) before they head to Richmond for the 2014 legislative session, which begins in Jan. 8.

Howell and Plum are hosting a public meeting in Thursday, Jan. 2, 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. at the Reston Community Center at Hunters Woods, 2310 Colts Neck Road, Reston.

Additionally, the entire Fairfax County General Assembly delegation will be at at hearing for public comment on Saturday, Jan. 4,  at 9 a.m. at the Fairfax County Government Center.  The public is invited to attend and comment.

The Reston meeting will be a very casual format, but organizers of the countywide meeting ask that you register in advance if you want to speak. To sign up contact the Office of the Clerk to the Board of Supervisors at 703-324-3151, TTY 711, by noon on Friday, Jan. 3.  Speakers also may sign up at the hearing.
