Virginia taxpayers await $200 rebate checks

Of note: Only people who owed and paid taxes in 2022 will get a refund.

What they're saying: "It's part of our broader strategy to reduce the cost of living in Virginia and to recognize that Virginians have been overtaxed," Youngkin said at an event last week, per the Times-Dispatch.

Flashback: Democrats and Republicans in the legislature agreed on the one-time rebates as part of a hard-fought budget compromise, which saw the GOP pushing for permanent tax cuts and Democrats pushing to increase education spending.
