Attorney General Miyares Touts Woolf's Commitment to Public Safety and His Human Trafficking Advocacy Efforts

 
Gainesville, VA - Today, Attorney General Jason Miyares endorsed Bill Woolf in the 30th District Senate race. 

Miyares said, "The true measure of a leader is their commitment to public service - and Bill Woolf has committed his entire career to protecting and serving the community. From a police officer in northern Virginia, to serving as the Acting Director of the Office for Victims of Crime in the U.S. Department of Justice, Bill has always worked to make our country a better and safer place. I'm endorsing Bill because I know he will work hard to keep Virginia safe, stand up for our law enforcement, and help our prosecutors put dangerous criminals behind bars. Join me in supporting him on the June 20th primary."

Bill Woolf said of the endorsement, "Attorney General Miyares is at the forefront of protecting our community and enforcing the law and I am honored to receive his endorsement.  I have made keeping people safe the cornerstone of my campaign and nobody embodies that determination more than the Attorney General."

Serving as a law enforcement officer on the streets of northern Virginia, Bill took on some of the most dangerous criminal street gangs with the mission of ending the terror they instilled in communities of hard working, good people.  He went on to head up the Northern Virginia Human Trafficking Task Force, addressing the insidious and horrific crime of human trafficking. He has dedicated his career to protecting the most vulnerable and standing up for those that have been marginalized, forgotten, or ignored. He subsequently went on to become Human Trafficking Programs Director at the U.S. Justice Department and acting Director of the Office for Victims of Crime.  He also served as Senior Advisor to the White House on human trafficking and child exploitation issues, after having been awarded the Presidential Medal for his work in protecting vulnerable women, men, and children.

Bill, age 43, now runs his own small business supporting and advocating for human rights, nonprofits, and developing programs in the US, and across the world, to tackle criminal gangs, exploitation, and human trafficking. He is married and a father to 6 children. In his spare time Bill loves flying after earning his private pilot certificate.
