Bob McDonnell on Corporations

Small businesses are the backbone of Virginia's economy

Small businesses are the backbone of Virginia's economy, accounting for 97.5% of all existing business establishments in the Commonwealth. As Governor, Bob McDonnell will continue to support policies that help small businesses, and in turn the worker they employ.
• Commit Virginia government to approve most routine business applications within 48 hours
• Significantly enhance the "The Virginia Business One Stop" website into a "First and Only Stop" by increasing the information, resources, and assistance available to ensure that only one stop is necessary to get a new business up and running with minimal delay
• Work with Virginia localities to get all necessary paperwork and forms for small business start ups online
• Fast track the permit process for small businesses
• Make it easier for businesses in good standing that are expanding within Virginia, or moving into the state, to operate under temporary licenses while awaiting official approval.

Get rid of taxes & regulations to make VA best for business

"I've set a goal of Virginia being the best place in America for small business," says McDonnell. "Get rid of some of the bureaucracy, the tax and the regulatory policies. 48-hour turn around time, one stop permitting to get entrepreneurs. I want to see the next Bill Gates come out of Virginia,".
