The undersigned public interest, civil rights, and consumer organizations urged Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger to sign SB229/HB449, authorizing Virginia consumers to band together and seek accountability in class actions when they are harmed.
Upon the Governor’s signature, Virginia finally will join almost every other state in securing this well-established procedural protection for its residents. This timely bill will help to provide Virginia’s residents with improved access to remedies at a time of rising costs and racial discrimination amid failures in corporate accountability.
