Promises made. Promises broken.
On the campaign trail, @GovernorVA committed to fighting for public workers and ensuring they had a voice on the job. This week, she vetoed legislation that would have done exactly that.

🔥 #OnThisDay in 1911, New York City fire fighters responded to the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, which resulted in the deaths of 146 garment workers.
The tragedy led to new laws protecting workers and to the development of @osha_dol.

Not sure that in my time around the General Assembly I’ve seen something like this. The entire @VaHouse Commerce & Energy committee gives a bipartisan standing ovation to the fire fighters who came out to support @BrewerForVa’s workers’ comp legislation. It passed unanimously.

Absolutely ridiculous. To road rage at @VirginiaBeachFD Engine 18 going lights and siren to a call is beyond idiotic. Hopefully this moron is quickly caught and promptly prosecuted. If anyone knows who this is please notify @VBPD.
