AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Gun Control Fallout: Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s new “assault weapons” ban is only hours old and already in court—NRA says it will sue in both state and federal venues, while the Trump administration signals it may join the fight. Labor Clash: Spanberger vetoed a bill that would have expanded collective bargaining for public workers, drawing union backlash as supporters argue the state is still stuck in restrictive, Jim Crow-era bargaining rules. Redistricting Aftershocks: Virginia’s map fight remains tangled in the courts, with attention on how the fallout could reshape the midterm House math. Federal Watchdog: A Pentagon inspector general report says the department quietly dismantled a legally required civilian-death prevention program—raising new questions about compliance in war zones. Local Life: Winston-Salem is planning a youth summer jobs and camp info meeting as it pushes employers to hire teens. Public Safety: The FBI is offering a $200,000 reward for Monica Witt, a former Air Force counterintelligence agent accused of aiding Iran.
