NEW YORK VS. FLORIDA: New York is estimated to have lost $10.7 billion in tax revenue as its share of America’s millionaires declined, while Florida gained $20.65 billion in income from people moving into the state. Now, critics fear Zohran Mamdani’s tax agenda could drive even more wealth out of New York. One state is bleeding money, the other is cashing in.

Your gas tax goes up again on July 1. You won't get to vote on it. You never have.
Here's the part Richmond is counting on you to miss: in 2020, Democrats in the General Assembly tied Virginia's gas tax to inflation — so it raises itself, automatically, every single July. No vote. No roll call. No fingerprints.
The result? The state gas tax has DOUBLED in six years — from 16.2 cents a gallon in 2020 to 32.6 cents this week.
Glenn Youngkin tried to give drivers a break with a three-month suspension. Senate Democrats killed it, 21-18.
They built a tax that raises itself so they'd never have to put their names on it. Their names are on something else: every State Senate and House of Delegates seat on your ballot in November 2027.
