Democrats in Virginia's House of Delegates propose direct cash payments to car owners to offset the high cost of gasoline, saying Gov. Glenn Youngkin's (R) plan for a gas tax holiday is not effective.
in a price gouging case brought last year when former governor Ralph Northam declared an emergency in the wake of a pipeline shutdown.“Democrats have offered fact-free claims that a gas tax holiday won’t lower prices, or that oil companies will benefit most, or that Virginians are the victims of price gouging," said Garren Shipley, spokesman for House Republican leadership.
“The governor appreciates that Democrats are finally realizing the impact rising costs are having on Virginians,” Porter said in a written statement, “but their new brainchild does nothing to lower gas prices and is ripe for fraud.”She pointed out that Democrats in New York have recently acted to suspend gasoline taxes in that state, and called on the General Assembly to deliver a broad range of tax cuts as negotiators work to finalize a budget.
