Governor Northam Signs: Governor Ralph Northam ceremonially signed “Breonna’s Law” today.
Sponsored by Delegate Lashrecse Aird and Senator Mamie Locke, the law prohibits the use of no-knock search warrants in the Commonwealth. Virginia is the third state in the country to ban this practice—and the first state to do so since the tragic death of Breonna Taylor, 26, who was killed in March during the execution of a no-knock search warrant in her Louisville, Kentucky home.
A Woman Who Walks In Purpose Doesn’t Have to Chase People or Opportunities. Her Light Causes People and Opportunities to Pursue Her.
Greatness is not measured by what a man or woman accomplishes, but by the opposition he or she has overcome to reach their goals.
