Budget Plan Passes Virginia Senate
The Virginia Senate passed a state budget that includes tens of millions of additional dollars for public schools, health care and transportation. But the evenly divided chamber rejected an attempt by Democrats to force the state to pay $1.5 million each year for a Republican-supported law that requires women to undergo ultrasounds before abortions.
