P.S. Let Albo, Rust, Griffith, O'Brien et al. know what you think of these fees by signing this petition.
They know that if they go to special session, or even wait until January, that they'll have to find extra funding if they do away with the insane abuser fees. Which will leave them with few options except tax increases of some sort. They won't do that, so it's little or no change to this monstrosity.
But they've missed the bigger point. People hate raising taxes at a gut level because they have to give more money to the government. Increasing traffic violation punishment, to the point of absurdity, is even less popular than a tax increase because people are now faced with giving the government thousands of dollars for what amounts to a minor infractions. Plain and simple, most people hate this bill (with it's major fines/fees) more than they'd hate an insignificant tax increase.
Virginia is worse off because of these flat-earthers, but personally I like their position because it's only going to help Democrats this year. Keep up the [sarcasm]good work, guys.
