 Bill Day for Congress

1st Congressional District Democrats Nominate Bill Day
WARRENTON - The 1st Congressional District Committee announced today that it has nominated Bill Day of Warrenton, Fauquier County, as its candidate for the United States House of Representatives from the 1st Congressional District of VA.
 
Day, a businessman and licensed
mental health counselor in Fauquier County, has a long record of public service. In addition to being a member of the Chambers of Commerce in Fauquier and Prince William counties, Day has served the community through work with Habitat for Humanity, the Sierra Club, the Piedmont Environmental Council and the League of Conservation Voters. Day regularly attends St. James Episcopal Church in Warrenton,
where he has led the Lenten program and an adult studies course. He has also made annual trips to Mississippi since Hurricane Katrina, to help with relief efforts.

Day ran a strong campaign in 2007 for the House of Delegates 31st district seat. He received a higher percentage of the vote than any other Democrat since the district lines were drawn in 2001.  In endorsing Day, the Washington Post noted, “opponent, Democrat Bill S. Day Jr., has a wealth of experience -- as a Harvard MBA, a developer and, a mental-health counselor -- that would make him a much more promising lawmaker.”
