The GOP “Affordability” Agenda

The agenda at a glance:

  • Lower Power Bills: Suspend costly energy mandates when prices spike or grid reliability is threatened, protecting families from being forced to choose between food and heat.
  • Car Tax Relief: Make good on the long-promised repeal of the car tax up to $20,000, putting real money back into household budgets.
  • Tax Protection: Permanently extend the enhanced standard deduction, preventing an automatic tax hike and saving a married couple an average of $661 per year.
  • Grocery Tax Repeal: End Virginia’s tax on groceries — one of only ten states that still imposes it — saving a family of four about $150 annually while holding local governments harmless.
  • Lower Car Insurance Costs: Allow, but do not require, insurers to offer preferred repair networks, creating a path to more affordable premiums for drivers.
