However it shouldn't have been collected in the first place if it's a surplus.

Agreed

Why? Is your son a creep that enjoys invading woman's shower locker room areas?
NP. The reason I’m voting for Spanberger, after voting for Youngkin four years ago, is that I’m fed up with MAGA’s bullshit. Now that I see that it’s infested the entire Republican Party, they will not get one vote from me as long as Trumpublicanism (which is neither Republican nor conservative) is the order of the day. And this one bathroom/locker room issue, which I happen to side with Sears on, is not enough to dissuade me from seeing the bigger picture.
Is that clear?

Democrats in VA legislature also approved this. It was bi-partisan.
Then why is Youngkin acting like this is his doing?
He's not. That's just in your head.
OP thanks Youngkin for the rebate and links to a Youngkin press release that doesn’t mention the General Assembly at all. (Did you even read the press release??) He is obviously taking sole credit for it.
