Mary Loose DeViney, PLP '05

A gradudate of the Class of 2005 Political Leaders Program, Mary Loose
DeViney is the author of a commentary titled "Should Virginia Reform
Medicaid" that appeared in the Sunday, January 8 edition of the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Mary writes in support of House of Delegates Speaker Bill Howell's proposals to reform Virginia's Medicaid program.

Mary writes: "Most Virginians know our health care costs are rising
much faster that increases to other goods and services. But many have
no idea our state is headed for a colossal train wreck unless our
leaders reject the existing state of affairs and adopt meaningful
reforms."

Besides being a graduate of the Sorensen Institute, Mary is Chairman of the Leadership Council for the National Federation of Independent Business/Virginia, President of the Virginia Jeweler's Association, and owner of Tuel Jewelers on Charlottesville's Downtown Mall.
