In 2019, voters handed Democrats unified control of Virginia government for the first time in 21 years, guaranteeing the party at least two years of unfettered lawmaking before the next election.
This yearâs House of Delegates elections and race for governor will be a debate largely over whether Democrats delivered what most Virginia voters wanted or changed too much too fast.
Fauquier remains a GOP stronghold. Republicans hold three of the four Virginia General Assembly positions that represent all or part of the county. For the most part, those Republican legislators have opposed the Democratsâ changes in state law.
Hereâs a look at the consensus agenda that emerged as lawmakers worked to squeeze a generationâs worth of pent-up legislative desire into a few short legislative sessions.

The Virginia General Assembly voted Saturday to pass legislation defining the scope of a new energy assistance program for low-income Virginians.
HB 2330, which passed the House by a 51-47 vote, and a razor-thin 20-19 vote in the Senate, provides Dominion and Appalachian Power consumers with a limit on their electric bills as well as weatherization or energy efficiency programs and energy conservation education programs to further alleviate energy burden.
