(Worthy News) – Since Democrats took over both houses of the Virginia legislature last year, they’ve been on a mission to pass left-wing legislation on a number of fronts. In just the first five weeks of the legislative session, they have reshaped decades of state policy.

Now Virginia lawmakers are poised to pass bills that could impact how churches and other faith-based organizations operate. [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]
