Biggest Political Issue facing Virginia

I think that the biggest political issue facing the state of Virginia is lack of adequate funding for transportation projects. Northern Virginia is the economic engine that brings prosperity to all of Virginia, but it is choking in traffic. The gas tax which pays for funding was never indexed for inflation and has not been raised since the 1980's. Costs for building roads and rail projects has risen and Virginia does not have the money to pay for improvements we need to keep commerce flowing. Politicians promise to improve roads without increasing taxes but you can't get something for nothing. Virginia has one of the lowest gas taxes in the country and northern Virginia has some of the worst traffic congestion in the nation - put two and two together.
