Building a Brighter Future
Adlah Donestrog Jr.
I was born and raised in the Virgin Islands, and my connection to this community has shaped my entire career. I entered public service because I believed that leadership should reflect the voices and needs of the people.
Throughout my career, I have worked to promote economic opportunity, responsible governance, and policies that improve quality of life for residents across our islands.
Serving our community has never been about politics alone — it has always been about people.
What We’ve Achieved
01
Supporting Local Workers
I worked to ensure that government contracts and development projects created opportunities for local residents by encouraging policies that prioritize local hiring.
02
Advocating for Economic Opportunity
One of my key priorities has always been creating economic opportunities for Virgin Islanders. I supported initiatives designed to strengthen small businesses, expand employment opportunities, and promote sustainable economic development.
03
Protecting Public Safety
During my time in the Legislature, I supported measures designed to improve public safety and reduce risks on our roads and in our communities.
04
Environmental and Community Protection
Our islands are defined by their natural beauty and resources. I supported policies that protect our environment and preserve the quality of life that makes the Virgin Islands such a special place to live.
05
Supporting Youth and Education
I have long believed that investing in young people is one of the most important responsibilities of leadership. I supported programs that help students prepare for careers, gain practical experience, and build successful futures.
06
Championing Taxpayer Rights
I advocated for policies that helped ensure Virgin Islanders received income tax refunds owed to them, standing up for fairness and accountability in government financial practices.
07
President of the Legislature
As President of the Legislature, I helped guide the legislative agenda, managed policy discussions, and worked to ensure that the concerns of our residents were heard and addressed through responsible governance.

The Stacked Deck: Why We Must Demand Better
For too long, opportunity in the Virgin Islands has felt out of reach for many. Too often, highly qualified individuals with the education, experience, and passion to serve are overlooked for positions that should be based on merit.
I know this reality firsthand. Despite earning a Master of Public Administration and certification in City Management, I experienced how a system can feel predetermined—where the deck appears stacked.
But this is bigger than one person. Each year, talented Virgin Islanders return home ready to serve, only to face barriers where connections matter more than qualifications.
That must change.
