Virginia Gov. Youngkin calls lawmakers to reconvene for special session on long-delayed state budget
Fox News
Lawmakers in Virginia will reconvene for a special session on Sep. 6 to consider a long-overdue state budget proposal following negotiations that dragged on for months.
"To make Virginia more affordable for families and local businesses, we must deliver on our shared goals for more jobs, safer and healthier communities, greater workforce and educational opportunities and much needed tax relief for Virginians. Together, we can get the job done," Youngkin said.
Last week, negotiators representing the Republican-controlled House of Delegates and Democratic-controlled Senate announced the bare-bones outlines of a compromise budget that would boost education spending and offer some tax relief, mostly in the form of one-time rebates. The full details of the plan, hashed out privately by the negotiators, haven't been released.
