The rundown

  • Gov. Youngkin vetoed several pieces of gun legislation this week — one of those bills would have banned the future purchase and manufacturing of assault weapons. He also signed two gun-related bills into law that Richmond-area Democrats sponsored.

  • Lawmakers passed bills during the 2024 General Assembly session that impact the press, including online public notices, FOIA costs and government transparency.


TODAY’S SPONSOR: Virginians Against Neighborhood Slot Machines

Thank you, Governor Youngkin for standing up for public safety & our law enforcement. The Virginia Fraternal Order of Police, the Virginia Police Benevolent Association and our entire coalition encourage you to veto SB 212 and keep convenience store slots that bring crime, undermine public safety and prey on underage and problem gamblers out of Virginia. Click here to learn more about why we need to keep these machines out of Virginia.
