The “Short” Plan
The “Short” list of priorities. Great leadership starts with listening to those you serve. This is what we’ve learned matters the most now. Putting people first.
Addressing your kitchen table issues
Families shouldn't have to choose between paying the mortgage, buying groceries, or saving for the future. Kim Short will champion practical solutions that expand housing options, keep taxes responsible, and make Prince William County a place where teachers, first responders, young families, and seniors can all afford to call home.
Moving Prince William County
Whether you're commuting to work, getting your children to school, or running daily errands, reliable transportation matters. Kim Short will advocate for safer roads, smarter traffic solutions, improved connectivity, and infrastructure investments that make travel easier for everyone — solving the difference between dinner with your family and dinner alone.
Preparing the next generation
Today's students are tomorrow's workforce and community leaders. Kim supports investments in public education, career and technical education, and partnerships that equip students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in college, careers, and life.
Strengthening public safety
Response times, lighting, sidewalks, and staffing — a commitment of support to our first responders is a non-negotiable necessity. Kim will invest in prevention and emergency preparedness to ensure public safety assets keep pace with our growing community.
Putting communities first
Land development decisions shape the future of Prince William County for generations. Kim is committed to transparent planning, listening to residents, and making decisions that respect existing communities while supporting sustainable growth and economic opportunity.
An office that answers.
Constituent service is not a courtesy, it is the job. Every concern logged, assigned, and closed — with the resident told what happened. Kim is running this way now, unpaid and without the title, because it is the only honest way to ask for the seat.
