Dem lawmakers call for end of Confederate groups’ tax breaks

A 75-year-old tax break for the United Daughters of the Confederacy’s headquarters, and other Confederate groups, is again under challenge, after last year’s veto by Gov. Glenn Youngkin.

A 75-year-old tax break for the United Daughters of the Confederacy’s headquarters, along with other Confederate groups, is again under challenge in the General Assembly, after last year’s veto by Gov. Glenn Youngkin.
And, as with a number of other bills introduced this year, the measure’s Democratic proponents say it should be a talking point in this year’s gubernatorial election.

The United Daughters of the Confederacy could lose tax exemptions under bills Virginia’s legislature is considering.
