Virginia Special Session Scheduled Following Adjournment

Following adjournment of the Virginia Legislature on March 14, a special session was necessitated by a disagreement in the Democratic party regarding tax breaks for data centers. Senate Democrats wish to slash the tax breaks, while House Democrats wish to keep them in the budget. This disagreement has caused the budget for the state to not pass during the regular session. Lawmakers will return to the Legislature on April 23 to finish the budget. During the regular session, lawmakers passed a bill to limit gifts to state and local electoral boards to $1,000 unless approved by a two-thirds vote of the board. 

Invite them out for coffee or a steak? Make sure you know the gift restrictions of your state or municipality. Request a demo of our online guidebooks today.
