Virginia lawmakers return to Richmond this week to tackle Gov. Bob McDonnell’s proposed bill amendments and changes to the state’s two-year, $80 billion budget plan — as well as the looming headache of the once-a-decade process of redrawing the state’s House, Senate and congressional lines. McDonnell vetoed four measures this year, including one that would increase the cap on medical malpractice awards from $2 million to $3 million over the next 20 years.

Del. Dave Albo, R-Fairfax, who helped broker a deal on the medical malpractice increase, said there were “no hard feelings” on the veto, but that legislators would still work to override the measure, which passed by wide margins in both the House and the Senate.
