Virginians elected us to deliver on a vision. We have lowered the cost of living, empowered parents, restored excellence in education, raised teacher pay, and protected the fundamental rights of parents because they matter.

Today’s commonsense decision by the Air Board to repeal RGGI protects Virginians from the failed program that is not only a regressive tax on families and businesses across the Commonwealth, but also does nothing to reduce pollution. governor.virginia.gov/newsro…

Throwback to @GovernorVA Glenn Youngkin's visit to post. Prior to speaking at commencement, Youngkin came to post to meet with graduating cadets. On this trip, he paid a visit to the guard team, came onto the intercom, and granted amnesty to the Corps! #ThrowbackThursday

Today we are reminded that freedom is never free, and since the founding of our nation, Virginians have answered the call of duty to defend her.
This morning, we paid tribute to the hundreds of thousands of brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.

These selfless men and women fought on land, on the sea, and in the air, risking their own lives and we remember the lives lost in this brave pursuit.
Remember their courage, their devotion, and above all, their sacrifice for the precious gift they have given us.

We are making Virginia more competitive for expansion through an agricultural sales tax exemption for the Commonwealth’s largest private sector industry, that will accelerate our commitment to developing our efforts in Ag-tech.

It was great to visit the Portsmouth Marine Terminal last week to learn all about their ongoing and future innovative projects. Their projects are giving Virginia a competitive advantage over other states.
