Colonial Williamsburg, Mount Vernon and Montpelier are among a group of Virginia destinations offering free admission to former and active-duty service members to honor them on Veterans Day.

Virginia tourism officials said Thursday that the former colonial capital as well as the estates of presidents George Washington and James Madison are among prominent sites and museums offering free admission to veterans and members of the Armed Forces. Hotels and other lodging businesses, as well as restaurants, are offering discounts.

The state is home to many iconic military memorials and museums, including Arlington National Cemetery and the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford. Many sites are always free to visit.

A committee in the House of Delegates has sent a bill to the House floor that would allow private, faith-based adoption agencies to discriminate against prospective parents based on their sexual orientation. Would you support this?

Yes, I think if it is a private organization it's okay.
No, there should be no discrimination.
It should depend on a case by case basis.
