Thanks so much for visiting my website. I invite you to explore the website and join me in my efforts to help Southside and Southwest Virginia. I am grateful for the honor of serving as a member of the Virginia Senate for the past 11 years, and I look forward to the years ahead.

I hope that you will not hesitate to contact me with any issues or concerns you may have. By working together, we can improve the quality of life for all of us who call Southside and Southwest Virginia home.

Bills Readied for Session- MARTINSVILLE BULLETIN

State Sen. Roscoe Reynolds, D-Ridgeway, has said he will introduce bills to ban payday lending and allow prosecutors to seize money and property from people who run organized dogfighting rings.

He also said he plans to introduce legislation to do away with some of what he believes to be missteps from last year's session. Reynolds said he will try to do away with the abusive driver fees, but he pointed out the legislation exists because it is what members of the House wanted it. He said he does not believe the House has changed enough that its members will support eliminating the fees instead of simply modifying them.

Reynolds also said he plans legislation that will "restore discretion to the State Corporation Commission" in utility rate cases, undoing the effects of a regulation bill Reynolds has said favors the utility companies and takes discretion away from the SCC.
