Virginia AG, top Democrat spar over fate of Youngkin university picks
Washington Post12-06-2025
A dispute over Gov. Glenn Youngkin's picks for eight university board seats escalated Wednesday as the Virginia attorney general and the Senate majority leader sent dueling letters over whether the appointees can still serve.
Senate Majority Leader Scott A. Surovell (D-Fairfax) told university rectors on Monday that the members could no longer be on the boards, effective immediately, after a Senate committee rejected the eight appointments.
