2024 SESSION
(HB265)GOVERNOR'S VETO
Pursuant to Article V, Section 6, of the Constitution of Virginia, I veto House Bill 265, relating to petition requirements for the removal of public officials from office.
This bill increases recall petition requirements by restricting circulation time and disallowing public circulation for petitions that have previously been circulated. Recall petitions are a tool for voters to hold public officials accountable.
Accordingly, I veto this bill.
