Moms Bring Daughters to Witness History at Spanberger Inauguration: 'That Could Be Them Someday'

Spanberger’s orders target cost reduction, education improvements, housing supply, and federal funding impacts, with agencies required to report within 90 days, officials said.

  • On Saturday, Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed 10 executive orders at the Virginia State Capitol immediately following her inauguration.
  • Spanberger campaigned on affordability, housing and rural healthcare, prompting swift orders as her administration vowed to lower costs and deliver results for families.
  • Establishing new bodies, Spanberger ordered both a health financing task force and a housing commission; Executive Order 2 creates the Interagency Health Financing Task Force, and Executive Order 3 establishes the Commission on Unlocking Housing Production to increase housing supply.
  • Spanberger rescinded Executive Order 47, reversing guidance on immigration enforcement amid disputes with former Gov. Glenn Youngkin and ordering a review of higher-education appointment processes.
  • In the coming months, commonwealth agencies must submit reports and recommendations to the governor while the Economic Resiliency Task Force assesses federal workforce, funding, Medicaid, and SNAP impacts.
