- Spanberger defends wave of vetoes as frustrated Democrats push back
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger has vetoed 31 bills passed by the Democratic-controlled legislature, blocking measures like public employee collective bargaining expansion and cannabis sales legislation. Democratic lawmakers and progressive allies criticize her approach, arguing it reflects a cautious centrist stance rather than leveraging unified Democratic control, while Spanberger defends her actions as fulfilling her constitutional role.
