Youngkin calls lawmakers back to Richmond, starts TV ads pushing tax cuts

RICHMOND — Gov. Glenn Youngkin said Wednesday he’s summoning the General Assembly back to Richmond on April 4 to pass a state budget, and he launched a pricey TV ad campaign to pitch tax cuts to Virginians and increase pressure on lawmakers to act.

“I really am expecting a budget to be passed by the House and the Senate. It’s time,” Youngkin (R) said during a news conference Wednesday outside the empty chambers of the state Senate.
