Election 2004 

So much at stake – and you can make a difference!

The Virginia Forestry Association, in coordination with the American Forest & Paper Association, has embarked on a great new project to provide you information about candidates and issues on Capitol Hill as they relate to our industry.

Click on the following link: www.growthevote.org/vfa to learn about hot forest products issues on Capitol Hill and how your legislator voted on them.  Plus, get important voting information for your district.

The site listed above can help you:

  • Encourage and teach employees how to register and vote
  • Assist employees in contacting their elected officials
  • Take action on important key issues through writing letters and setting up Congressional visits
  • Learn about joining the “Grow the Vote” effort and getting more forest products professionals involved

We hope you were registered and made it to the polls for the Virginia primary in June.  If didn’t because you’re not registered to vote, you can use this site to do just that.  You must be registered to vote by October 4th, however, to be eligible to vote in the elections in November.

 Remember, America works best when Americans vote.

**Early Voting began in Virginia on September 20th
