LG Winsome Sears Condemns Efforts to Intimidate Judges
Virginia Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears joined Thursday’s edition of Fox & Friends to discuss the Left’s efforts to harass and intimidate U.S. Supreme Court justices. “This is mob rule,” Sears lamented. “This is America, we don’t do this.”
Fairfax Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano has rebuffed calls to establish security perimeters around the homes of justices who reside in the county. Sears blasted Descano as well as the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors for their continued refusal to enforce Virginia law.

Stop Higher Taxes in Fairfax County!
On April 12, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors will hear comments from the public regarding the FY 2023 Advertised Budget. As Supervisor Pat Herrity (R-Springfield) has warned, the board’s advertised budget would result in 9.5 percent increase in taxes incurred by the average homeowner.
Fairfax GOP Vice Chairwoman Srilekha Palle will address the county board April 12, urging them to hold the line on real estate taxes. “I need you all to understand that the highest increases are on the lower-value properties—townhomes, primarily—the people who can least afford it,” Palle intends to remind supervisors.

Stop Higher Taxes in Fairfax County!
At the February 22nd Board meeting, the County Executive presented the FY 2023 Advertised Budget which includes a 9.5 percent increase in taxes paid by the average homeowner – with many across the County seeing increases much higher.
If approved as is, it will be the most significant tax increase since 2006 when Gerry Connolly was Chairman during the period when real estate taxes on the average homeowner doubled from $2407.27 in 2000 to $4830.42 in 2008. This increase comes despite the advertised budget holding the tax rate flat at $1.14 per $100 of assessed value due to higher assessments.
HERRITY: Board Dems Want to Unfairly Change Voting Rules
At Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting, the Board voted 9-1 to ask Governor Northam to remove the witness signature requirement for absentee ballots in Fairfax County because our residents may not be able to get signatures due to COVID concerns. The General Assembly removed the witness signature requirement during the 2020 elections while we were under a State of Emergency. It was reinstated once the State of Emergency ended in the Commonwealth.
