Virginia becomes the first state in the South to target 100% clean power
The states Democratic majority is doing what Democratic majorities do.

In the 2019 election, Virginia voters finally figured out the one weird trick that allows any jurisdiction to pass good climate and clean energy legislation: They put Democrats in charge, with a 21-19 majority in the Senate and a whopping 55-45 majority in the House.
Sure enough, last week, the General Assembly passed the Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA), which puts Northams vision into law. The House voted 51-45 and the Senate voted 22-17; in each chamber, the bill received precisely one Republican vote.
Virginia has now become the first state in the South to embark on a clean-energy transition and one of the leading states in the nation on clean-energy policy. Lets take a quick look at what the bill does.
