  • "Mary firmly believes that every life is precious and needs to be protected from the moment of conception and will work to defund Planned Parenthood.  Mary will fight to defend the right to life of the unborn." (maryjonesva.com)
  • "When Mary served on the James City County Board of supervisors, she was able to keep her campaign promises of decreasing taxes and practicing fiscal stewardship. While other counties in the nation were raising taxes due to declining revenues, Mary’s fiscally responsible approach and practices rewarded James City County with a AAA bond rating.  Mary knows that low taxes are essential to economic health and will work diligently to remove onerous tax burdens on American Citizens and businesses." (maryjonesva.com)
  • "Thank you Chairman Fairman and the York Republican Women's Club for inviting me to speak this evening about repealing Obamacare, securing our borders, rebuilding our military, taking care of our Veterans, education and defunding Planned Parenthood!" (www.facebook.com)

  • "Every parent deserves the right to provide the education that they feel is best, for their children.  Mary will work to provide parents with the choices necessary, for parents to make these important choices, including school vouchers, to create competition to provide schools the means to create the best learning environment, for all children.  Mary believes that control of education should be given back to Virginia, and taken out of the hands of big federal government, and its bureaucracy." (maryjonesva.com)
  • "Mary believes that America should be able to develop its own natural resources, such as nuclear, solar, wind, and fossil fuels, to allow it to move away from relying on foreign oil. Virginia is a state that is fortunate to have these resources which will improve its economy and increase job growth, as well." (maryjonesva.com)

  • "All across America, our constitutional right to keep and bear arms is being scrutinized. Our Second Amendment rights should never be compromised or infringed for any reason.   Mary is committed to defend Americans’ Second Amendment rights and will work to remove any unconstitutional restrictions  that could infringe upon our Second Amendment rights." (maryjonesva.com)
  • "The right to self-defense is a right that all Virginians need to have the ability to exercise.  Legislation that enacts National Concealed Carry reciprocity, would afford Americans the ability to conceal carry across state lines, and provide additional protection to the individuals of this great country.  It would also help to keep the Second Amendment, of the Constitution, from coming under attack by the media, liberals, and the federal government, itself." (maryjonesva.com)
  • "In spite of the fact that Congress is controlled by the GOP, they have fallen short and have not yet begun the process of repealing The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare)." (maryjonesva.com)
  • "Obamacare is a failure in many areas, including the rights of citizens to choose their own doctors, the promise of lower healthcare premiums, lower deductibles, and has caused many insurance companies to opt out of the Healthcare Marketplace, causing many Americans to lose their insurance.  Mary believes that tax-free Health Savings Accounts are a crucial part of Americans’ health care, and she will fight hard to expand these essential accounts."
