The Governor vetoed HB 650 and SB 351, prohibiting certain federal civil immigration arrests in courthouses, schools, state hospitals and near polling places without a judicial warrant.

Executive Order 16 is no substitute for real due process protections.

We won’t stop fighting for the safety, dignity, and rights of immigrant families across the Commonwealth. Read our full statement HERE: https://www.justice4all.org/news/statement-in-response-to-governor-vetoing-hb650-sb351/

Alt text: Four informational slides from the Legal Aid Justice Center with a black background, blue highlight bars, and white and yellow text about immigration enforcement protections in Virginia. The slides explain that the Governor vetoed HB 650 and SB 351, legislation intended to limit certain federal civil immigration arrests in sensitive locations such as courthouses, schools, state hospitals, and near polling places without a judicial warrant. Images across the slides include federal agents in tactical gear, protesters holding signs reading “ICE Out of Courts,” and community members marching in support of immigrant rights. The final message states that Executive Order 16 does not replace the stronger protections offered by the bills and argues that the veto undermines due process protections for vulnerable families across Virginia.

The 2026 Virginia General Assembly resulted in some incredible wins for LAJC, our partners, and communities across the state: 21 of our priority bills were signed into law by Governor Spanberger, along with 10 others that we co-led. Full details here: https://www.justice4all.org/news/lajc-post-session-2026/

Other bills we supported were amended, some in small technical ways, and others in significant ways—meaning we have more hard work ahead of us to support Virginia communities. Amended bills were considered at the General Assembly’s Reconvened Session last Wednesday and sent back to the governor for final consideration.

Budget negotiations are ongoing and require a Special Session where legislators agree to budget proposals and submit them to the governor. LAJC will continue to advocate for our priorities throughout this process. We will also share updates as we work to inform, support, and empower communities as new laws go into effect.

THANK YOU for standing with us in the fight for justice for all. Onward!

Thank you to the many Virginians who have spoken out boldly against the aggressive, dehumanizing, and unconstitutional tactics of ICE. Especially those who persevered in the face of injustice, the risk of detention and separation from your loved ones. You continued to fight and we are so grateful. Thank you to the partners, patrons, legislators, and everyone else that fought to make this happen. It took all of us.

Renters across Virginia are living with unsafe housing and fear of retaliation—right now.
Delaying protections until 2027 is unacceptable. We can’t wait while problems continue.
Tell your State Senator and Delegate: ACCEPT the Governor’s amendments.
Virginia renters need these protections in 2026—not later.
