The other thing that people don’t understand here is that Virginia is a Dillon rule State (the opposite of Florida).

Local governments CANT impose any local mandate or ordinance unless
the general assembly has expressly delegated that power to them. So local cities and counties can’t impose their own mandates outside of what the law already allows.

If Youngkin doesn’t impose mandates like Northam did, most mandates will fall anyway.

I understand that the moron class doesn’t know the difference between Dillon Rule and Home Rule but it is a point worth bringing up to those that can see why that matters here in the context of what Youngkin said.

I am hopeful as you are, that most, all mandates will go by the wayside. Youngkin may end up being a very good Governor. I sure hope so.

Different subject, but Newport News Ship building said they would not abide by a Biden mandate that their workers be vaccinated. Just saw that today.
