Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) vetoed 48 bills on Friday, including one surrounding contraception and another that would have removed tax breaks for some organizations.
Among the nixed bills was SB 238, which defined contraceptives such as IUDs and Plan B and would have protected their use by requiring that insurance companies provide coverage for them. It passed with a 24-15 Senate vote and a 69-29 House of Delegates vote without Youngkin’s proposed amendments.
