Withdraw from RGGI
On his first day in office, Youngkin withdrew Virginia from the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), a “climate change” group. He wrote in the order, “Simply stated, the benefits of RGGI have not materialized, while the costs have skyrocketed. Re-evaluation of the Initiative represents a meaningful step toward alleviating this financial burden on the Commonwealth’s businesses and households. Regulations must be evaluated in view of the costs and benefits to all Virginians.”
