Democrats put up a fight on several of the vetoes, highlighting what they said were inaccuracies or inconsistencies in the governor’s reasoning.
Del. Charniele L. Herring accused Youngkin of acting mainly “to strike back at Democrats” and “to fan the flames of culture war in order to boost his national profile.”
Republicans also agreed to not vote on an amendment proposed by Youngkin that would have required the General Assembly to vote again next year on a law setting out qualifications for membership on boards and commissions in the city of Falls Church. However, Republicans approved an amendment proposed by Youngkin to require people on the city’s boards and commissions to be legal citizens.
The Senate voted unanimously against Youngkin’s attempt to gut a bill intended to beef up the state’s flood preparedness. Only three of the Amendments that do not get a vote fail and the bill returns to the governor in its original form, as is the case when the governor’s amendments get voted down. The governor then can choose to sign the unamended bill, allow it to become law without his signature or veto it. If he opts for a veto, the General Assembly will not have a chance to override it.
All of Ebbin’s vetoed bills passed the House and Senate by overwhelming margins. Six won unanimous support in both chambers, and Youngkin signed six identical House bills. Typically a governor signs both versions, allowing both sponsors to claim credit for getting a bill passed into law.
