Saslaw announced his plans to retire Thursday in a speech on the Senate floor, drawing accolades — and tears — from legislators on both sides of the aisle.
“There is only one Dick Saslaw,” former Democratic governor Terry McAuliffe wrote in a text message
“Some people stay in office a long time and become imperious,” Allen said. “To me, he was just a very reasonable person.” By that date, Saslaw will have marked 44 years in the Senate and 48 in the legislature overall, having served two two-year terms in the House. He has already surpassed the 40-year tenure of Charles “Chuck” Colgan , who was Virginia’s longest-serving state senator when he retired in 2016.
