Earlier today Governor Glenn Youngkin announced his proposed changes to the budget sent to him by the General Assembly.
House Republican Leader Todd Gilbert issued the following statement:
“The Governor’s package of budget amendments reflects a genuinely Herculean effort to find common ground with the Democrats in the General Assembly. It retains the vast majority of their funding priorities, and it does so without raising taxes.
“Even as Democrats refused to come to the table, the Governor has put forward nothing less than an olive branch of compromise. I look forward to working with him to see these amendments accepted, and the budget signed into law.”
