Virginia lawmakers advanced legislation to remove tax breaks from multiple Confederate groups after Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) vetoed a similar bill last year.

The Democrat-led House of Delegates voted 53-42 on Friday to advance the legislation that would take away certain tax exemptions from the Virginia Division of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and Confederate Memorial Literary Society, among others.
