Sample summary content

The VA Government onAir hub is managed by students supporting Virginians to become more informed about and engaged in local, state, and federal politics while facilitating more civil and positive discussions with their representatives, candidates, and fellow citizens.

• VA onAir is one of 50 state governance and elections hubs that the US onAir Network is providing to help reinvigorate US democracy.  This post has short summaries of current state and federal representatives with links to their complete Hub posts.  Students curate post content from government, campaign, social media, and public websites.  Key content on this Virginia Hub is also replicated on the US onAir national hub at: usgov.onair.cc.
• The Students onAir @GMU chapter is the founding chapter for the US onAir network. Virginia students will be forming onAir chapters in their colleges and universities to help curate Virginia onAir content.  As more students participate and more onAir chapters are started, we will expand to include more state and local content as well as increase the number of aircasts – student-led, livestreamed, online discussions with candidates, representatives, and the public.
• To start an onAir chapter at your university, college, or high school, email usdemocracy@onair.cc
