I join Speaker Scott in encouraging our colleagues to do the right thing. It will only take 6 Republicans to join us in the Senate to make sure kids are not going to school with a leaky roofs and faulty HVAC systems. The buildings are falling down around our kids ears.

“”The Board of Supervisors has bestowed upon me the greatest honor anyone fighting censorship and banning could receive by censoring me and my project,” Lindley said.”

The kids are alright. The adults banning books look small compared.wvtf.org/news/2024-04-1…

Fantastic policy change by Henrico County Government and Zulfi is exactly right!

The MAGA Republican repeal of Roe continues to sow chaos.

This time restoring an 1860s law that completely bans abortion and doesn’t have rape or incest exceptions.

In Virginia we must enshrine choice in our Constitution. Otherwise Republicans will bring these laws here.

They are bad. And school systems and states need to act. This year the legislature (with a Bill Stanley bill) made clear localities can ban them.

We might need to go further.

This is right-wing ideology getting in the way of helping kids and communities.

Every community (rural conservative ones!) that have had this vote have voted to up their sales tax to invest in school infrastructure.

This bipartisan bill would have helped Virginians. It would have ensured folks could get the medication they need and brought down their cost of living.

As long as Virginia Democrats control the legislature we won’t stop trying to reduce drug prices.

It’s worth noting that his veto statement is misleading. This bill would protect Virginia medical professionals who follow Virginia law.

He doesn’t want to protect providers from aggressive GOP AGs trying to stop their citizens from accessing abortion in states where it’s legal.
