Even a Fox News poll found 77% of Americans in favor of a 30-day waiting period for purchasing a firearm.

Last week, these VA Republicans voted against a *5* day waiting period.

VA House Republicans voted in lockstep against a bill which would require landlords to address any "fire hazard or serious threat to the life, health, or safety of tenants or occupants of the premises."

Because they hate you.

WATCH: @tnhousegop leaders say @GovBillLee’s plan is to “hold public schools harmless” if kids leave.

As Superintendent Luttrells point out👇🏽, this means taxpayers pay DOUBLE per student… forever? (Unlikely!)

PSA: most voucher kids are already in private schools.

Virginia House Republicans voted against a bill to require state correctional facilities to keep prisoners' cells at a livable temperature.

A reminder for Virginia Republicans:

If you spend all your time thinking about Other People's Genitals, you're a degenerate loser.

Right to Work laws only guarantee the right to work for less. Less money, less benefits, less power to negotiate with an employer.
Seeing how much voters across the Commonwealth absolutely hated it last time, Virginia Republicans are once again trying to ram-through a "Right to Work" constitutional amendment this year.

GOP Delegate Mark Earley has been hanging out with an aggressively "masculine" ministry group which says it teaches men to be "barbarians." But in a Jesus way.

Seems normal!

Mike Johnson just threatened to potentially extort California by adding “conditions” to wildfire disaster relief aid.

He said Republicans might attach unrelated things to the funding, like Trump’s demand to raise the debt ceiling.
Johnson confirms 'discussions' on tying wildfire aid to debt limit
Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters one option on the table is making a new tranche of disaster relief funding for the California wildfires conditional on agreeing to raise the debt ceiling.

VA Republican Delegates Mark Earley and David Owen kowtowed to their Koch-brothers-owned bosses at Americans for Prosperity last week.

AFP is arguably the leading group pushing for tax cuts for billionaires. They don't care about you.
