Reject the Radical, Risky National Popular Vote Compact

By |March 3, 2026|

A campaign that started in California in 2006 has reached Richmond, and it's gunning for the Electoral College. Bills passed by Virginia's House and Senate would add the Commonwealth to the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, a scheme that would force Virginia to ignore its own voters and hand its presidential electors to whoever wins a nationwide popularity contest. There's no official national vote total, it likely violates the Constitution's Compact Clause, and every single state that's signed on is blue. Here's why Gov. Spanberger should reject it.

The Law

By |March 3, 2026|

When President Trump asked members of Congress during his State of the Union address to stand if they believed the government’s duty is to protect American citizens over illegal aliens, the silence from the left was striking. That moment raises a deeper constitutional question about the true purpose of government. From the Constitution’s Guarantee Clause to the natural rights philosophy of John Locke and the principles expressed in the Declaration of Independence, the American system is built on the idea that government exists to protect the life, liberty, and property of its citizens. When elected officials place ideological agendas above the law and refuse to support enforcement of immigration statutes, it raises serious concerns about the rule of law itself—and whether some lawmakers have forgotten the fundamental responsibility they were elected to uphold.
