Virginia SCC: Sam Nixon
Chief Admin. Officer
“In Virginia, the SCC is not just a utility Commission. It’s also the banking Commission and the insurance Commission. We also oversee railroad safety, gas pipeline safety, and security brokers.”

“We do complement each other. Judge Jagdmann has the experience and depth of knowledge. Judge Hudson coming from FERC, has that federal experience. My experience is more on the public policy side.”
Virginia SCC: Commissioner Jehmal Hudson
Commissioner
“We Commissioners also work with HR, the CAO, and the Comptroller's Office to address matters related to running the business side of the agency.”
Virginia SCC: Chair Judith Williams Jagdmann
