“Virginia’s cost of living is not allowing young people to live. We can not have a successful Virginia If we can not support our young adults. I don’t consider myself having a future in Virginia, which hurts because I love this state with my whole heart as it provides and offers so much. I grew up here, I’ve gone to college here, all of my connections are here—but in order for me to flourish as a person I can not stay, and I am not the only young person who is on this path.”
