Toscano's campaign website highlights the following issues:

Good communities do not just happen; they are the product of countless decisions by public servants and private parties who seek to create a high quality of life while building opportunities for their families and neighbors.

To compete and thrive in the 21st Century, we will need to reinforce our economic vitality and redouble our efforts to expand opportunities for all citizens to participate in the wealth and success of the region.

• Preschool Education: A Jump-Start to Success-Both educators and parents recognize the importance of quality preschool education as the basis of future success in schools.
• K-12 Education: Excellence and Equity Centered on Children-Virginia ranks 7th in personal income but is 15th among states in per-pupil spending, and 29th among states in average teacher salary. Our schools need more resources to teach our children what they need to know to compete and succeed in the 21st century.
• Crisis in Math & Science Education: What is to be Done-The scientific and academic community has been concerned about the crisis in math and science education for years; our schools are not producing the scientists, engineers and mathematicians necessary for this country to maintain its science and technological preeminence, thereby putting our global economic prominence at risk.
• Higher Education: Ensuring the Commonwealth’s Ability to Compete-For many Virginians, a college degree is essential to succeed in today's economy, yet only 35% of college-age Virginians are actually enrolled in a two or four year college. Increasing these enrollments means keeping tuition within reasonable limits and making more grants as appropriate to permit our children to access our colleges and universities.

Our natural resources not only enhance our quality of life but are essential to certain industries such as agriculture, forestry, sea food, and tourism.

Despite numerous efforts over the last four years, the Commonwealth is not adequately addressing our transportation needs.

The Constitutional Right to freedom of reproductive choice must remain legal, and its exercise safe and rare.

Access to reasonably priced quality health care is challenging for many Virginians of all ages and backgrounds.
