RGGI
 

The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) was passed by the Virginia General Assembly.  Gov. Youngkin does not have the power to unilaterally overturn it.

RGGI has already proven to be successful at reducing emissions, improving public health, and providing millions in funding to Virginians for energy efficiency and mitigation for coastal areas that are vulnerable to flooding.
