‘Policy Matters’ is your window into Virginia politics with VPAP. It's our monthly roundup of the top political headlines from across Virginia, powered by VPAP’s daily e-newsletter, VaNews.

This month we discuss the results of November's historic state elections and what they mean for Virginia over the next few years, what to expect from the General Assembly in their upcoming session, and we bid farewell to Chris Piper, who is moving out of the Executive Director position at the Virginia Public Access Project.
