Virginia State Senator Glen Sturtevant blasts Gov. Abigail Spanberger and the House of Delegates for including a 150% pay increase for lawmakers in the House’s proposed budget and keeping tax breaks for data centers.

“This data center study the House cooked up with the Governor will be staffed by members of the data center industry and lobbyists. It’s a “blue ribbon” commission that’s designed to not actually accomplish anything.

Giving a $2B a year tax break to Big Tech is not in the best interest of Virginians, especially when they’re paying higher electric bills to subsidize the data centers’ electricity needs too.

Meanwhile, this budget gives the General Assembly a 150% pay increase. What’s been done to earn that?!”

Thank you to my friend, and former Virginia State Senator Amanda Chase for the endorsement. I really appreciate your informative updates about what’s going on in the General Assembly in your Honey Badger newsletter.

“Trump endorsed Congressman John McGuire has proven he can get things done in Congress for the people of the 5th District. No one works harder.”
-Former State Senator Amanda Chase, “The Honey Badger Report”
