The Defense Business Board (DBB), a group of independent advisors to the Pentagon, has recommended closing Norfolk based Joint Forces Command to reduce costs in the Department of Defense.
Independent Second District Congressional Candidate Kenny Golden, however, disagrees with the assessment:
Bill Bartel of The Virginian-Pilot is reporting that Scott Rigell is "telling community groups he won't attend any forum that also includes the third candidate, Kenny Golden."
Mike Gooding from WVEC-13 has also picked up the story and has a great video which you can watch below or view the whole article at their website.
Friday August 6th, Kenny will be holding his next town hall meeting on national security issues. The special focus will be the military's impact on the Hampton Roads economy. You can see pictures from our last event on our Facebook page.
Kimball Payne from the Daily Press has a great article up about our campaign and the opening of our new headquarters. Check it out over at their blog, The Shad Plank.
