Arlington County to provide Briefing to Legislators on Federal Impacts

Published on May 15, 2025

On Monday, May 19th, at 4:30 PM the Arlington County Board will hold a work session with the Virginia General Assembly Delegation to provide a briefing on the impacts of recent federal actions and workforce reductions on Arlington County, and to answer any questions the Delegation may have. 

“One in five Arlington residents are directly employed by the federal government, and federal agencies and contractors have a significant footprint within the County, making our community especially vulnerable to decisions made at the federal level,” said Board member Maureen Coffey, who serves as the Board’s legislative liaison. “We want to ensure that our delegation has the information they need about the risks for our residents, our county, and our business community so that they can advocate effectively within the General Assembly.”  

The Board welcomes the public to attend in person or view via livestream at www.arlingtonva.us, and on local cable stations Comcast 25 & 1073 and Verizon FiOS 39 & 40. The meeting will be held in the Arlington County Board room on the 3rd floor of the Bozman Government Center at 2100 Clarendon Blvd.
