Reflecting on the Birth of Representative Governance in America

Four hundred and six years ago, under the sweltering sun of Virginia, a group of English settlers convened in a modest wooden church in Jamestown. This gathering marked the inception of the first representative assembly in the New World, a foundational moment that has since evolved into the oldest continuous legislative body in the Western Hemisphere, setting the stage for one of humanity’s most ambitious experiments in self-governance.

These pioneering Virginians, driven by a quest for prosperity and opportunity, united not as subjects of a distant monarchy, but as an autonomous collective intent on managing their own destinies. Against nearly overwhelming challenges, they enacted laws that reflected their aspirations—laws designed to honor the divine, serve the common good, and respond to the people’s will. Their deliberations addressed critical issues such as taxation, agriculture, and trade with Indigenous tribes. What began as a humble assembly in Jamestown has blossomed over centuries into a profound legacy of self-governance, emblematic of the American spirit. As John Adams famously stated prior to the Declaration of Independence, “We all look up to Virginia for examples.”

From local town halls to grand statehouses, and from Congress to the presidency, the ideals that ignited that first assembly—self-determination, representation, accountability, and a commitment to the common welfare—continue to resonate throughout our customs and shape our national identity.

As we approach the 250th anniversary of our independence, we take a moment to commemorate the enduring principles of liberty and self-governance that were born in Virginia, the cradle of American democracy. These principles have steered our nation for over two centuries and will undoubtedly illuminate our path for generations to come.

Today, we reaffirm that self-governance and the hard-won freedom we cherish are our most valued inheritance. America is not under the yoke of tyrants or distant authorities; it is led by a vigorous, independent citizenry. As the legacy of Jamestown continues to thrive through the Virginia House of Delegates and in the hearts of every American, we pay homage to the remarkable resilience, courage, and foresight of the first settlers. Their sacrifices have allowed our nation, 406 years later, to stand taller, prouder, and mightier than ever—unified, free, and governed solely by the will of our people, as one magnificent nation under God.
