Virginia AG Double Standard
The two largest DEI categories are Veterans and women. Virginia's proud of being both and has benefited from affirmative efforts to put Vets on the ballot (DEI also gives Vets a 5 point preference in federal hiring - which then translates to post-retirement jobs in the private sector - especially in Virginia).
Representative Spanberger is a very public advocate for Veterans.
The Attorney General of Virginia (whose job is to lead, not prosecute) supports ending DEI, signing a letter by other Republican AGs encouraging Costco from gutting their program.
What is worse, supporting a candidate for private email that are disagreeable or one who actively supports ending a vital program that helps a great many Virginians in the Tidewater and Northern Virginia areas?
How can the highest ranking woman in Virginia elector history justify supporting an AG candidate who acts against the interests of a very large portion of the Commonwealth? I sense some cognitive dissonance here.
Somebody needs to ask the Lt. Governor her views on the current AG. He does not deserve to be rehired. Given the current climate, nor Republican really does - so how can Mrs. Earle-Sears even continue in this party - rather than running as an independent?
