Promises made. Promises broken.
On the campaign trail, @GovernorVA committed to fighting for public workers and ensuring they had a voice on the job. This week, she vetoed legislation that would have done exactly that.
🔥 The Virginia General Assembly has spoken.
It's time for @GovernorVA to #SignTheBill and finally give fire fighters a voice on their health and safety, pay, benefits, and working conditions.
🔥Thank you @JimJustice_WV for standing with #firefighters on this important issue!
Today, I joined firefighters to talk about No Tax on Overtime for All Workers.
The heroes working extra hours to serve our communities deserve to keep more of their hard-earned money.
We made progress on tax cuts in the One Big Beautiful Bill—now it’s time to finish the job.
