AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Spanberger’s Vetoes: Gov. Abigail Spanberger keeps drawing fire from Democrats after signing some bills and vetoing others, including a retail marijuana marketplace and a Prescription Drug Affordability Board—moves advocates say break promises and prolong a years-long cannabis stalemate. Gun Law Fallout: The new “assault firearms” ban is already headed to court, with pro-Second Amendment groups seeking to block enforcement. Local Tech, Local Budgets: Martinsville is cutting back its Flock license-plate camera program as grant funding ends, shrinking the active camera count from 41 to 24 by year’s end. Energy Watch: Richmond is bracing for what could change if NextEra’s acquisition of Dominion clears regulators, with jobs and utility costs the big questions. National Politics: The U.S. Senate advanced a war-powers resolution limiting Iran strikes after GOP defections, a rare rebuke that signals pressure building inside the party.
