Friend,
Governor Glenn Youngkin here, writing to give you an update on the General
Assembly session that just adjourned.
When this session began, I made a challenge to the General Assembly: continue
the bipartisan progress we’ve made for Virginians over the last two years by
coming together around commonsense policies.
During my first two years as Governor, we passed $5 billion in tax relief,
created more than 200,000 jobs, attracted iconic businesses to relocate to
Virginia, and made record investments in students, teachers, behavioral health,
and law enforcement – all in a bipartisan manner.
I was hopeful that Democrats would work with us to continue that bipartisan
success. Unfortunately, Virginia Democrats chose an entirely different
direction that will undo all the progress we’ve made.
They just released a backward budget that takes Virginia back to past policies
that failed the Commonwealth before I took office. Their budget includes $2.6
billion in tax hikes that will hurt lower-income Virginians the most. They want
to expand the sales tax, which would amount to a $2 billion tax increase. They
also want to impose an energy tax on Virginians to the tune of $600 million,
meaning your electric bill will go up.
Virginia Democrats also removed critical policies from their backward budget
that should be commonsense, bipartisan priorities.
There is no tax relief included in their plan – nothing to offset the harmful
tax hikes they want to impose on Virginians. They stripped funding out of the
budget meant for recruiting law enforcement officers and school resource
officers. And they rejected a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring 30,000
jobs, $12 billion in economic contribution, and two professional sports teams
to Virginia.
I am disappointed that Virginia Democrats did not answer the call for
bipartisanship and instead chose to advance partisan policies that will take
Virginia backward. But as Governor, I will never stop fighting for Virginians.
I am not going to let Virginia Democrats undo the great progress we’ve made
over the last two and a half years. That’s why I need your help.
DONATE. STAND WITH GOVERNOR YOUNGKIN.

It will take resources to spread the word about the backward budget Virginia
Democrats released. It will also take resources to remind Virginians that the
progress we’ve made since I was elected Governor – historic tax relief,
economic investment, job creation, and resources for law enforcement, students,
and teachers – risks being undone unless Virginia Democrats come back to the
table around commonsense, bipartisan priorities.
I will not stand by while Virginia Democrats try to take our Commonwealth
backward. With you standing with me, we can stay on the path to prosperity,
where Virginia is truly the best place to live, work, and raise a family.
DONATE. STAND WITH GOVERNOR YOUNGKIN.
