Each week during General Assembly, the VBPD shares a snapshot of a bill that could impact Virginians with disabilities and their families. Our goal is to help Virginians better understand legislation that affects their lives.

These are our Bills of the Week for the 2026 General Assembly Session. Session began on Wednesday, January 14. A new Bill of the Week will be posted every Monday.
