Summary: The committee first took up several pending bills and reported them favorably: SB 968, SB 636 as substituted, SB 1137, and SB 1138 as substituted. Each was advanced by roll call vote, and the committee also recommended the approved bills for the local and uncontested calendar. The chair then moved to the posted agenda and heard SB 719, a mental health bed-capacity study bill by Senator Eckhart, with a committee substitute that refined the data collection to distinguish state and non-state beds, child and adult beds, include two point-in-time counts, and capture jail diversion data. Testimony on SB 719 was largely supportive from Integral Care, NAMI Texas, and the Children’s Hospital Association of Texas, all of whom said Texas needs better data on inpatient psychiatric capacity, workforce needs, and future demand. Several witnesses described long waits for beds, especially for forensic restoration, and argued the study would help target future investments. Senator Perry and others noted the state has already made major investments in new beds and urged the bill to account for beds already coming online; the committee ultimately withdrew the substitute and left SB 719 pending after public testimony closed. The committee then heard SB 1864, which would allow small egg producers to sell ungraded eggs more broadly, including to restaurants and retailers, with the substitute increasing the weekly sales threshold and addressing sanitation and labeling. Supporters said grading is about size, not safety, and that the bill would help small farms reach new markets; opponents from the Texas Poultry Federation argued grading and candling help identify cracks and defects that can affect safety and quality. The committee adopted the substitute and left the bill pending. It also heard SB 1467, requiring DSHS to share death record information with hospitals for record accuracy and quality review, and SB 912, which would modernize continuing education tracking for health licensing agencies; both bills drew supportive testimony and were left pending. Finally, the committee heard SB 2023, which would create an HHSC grant program to help counties pay for indigent burial costs, with county representatives testifying in support.

Summary: The Commission on Unemployment Compensation met with a quorum present, introduced new members and staff, and elected Delegate Destiny LeVere Bolling as chair and Senator Mike Jones as vice chair. The commission also adopted its electronic meeting policy. The Secretary of Labor and Virginia Employment Commission leadership then gave introductory remarks about the labor secretariat, VEC’s role, and the administration’s focus on workforce stability, transparency, and access to services. Staff provided a legislative update on recent unemployment-related bills. Marvie Ali reviewed the commission’s statutory duties and noted that HB 1320 and SB 759 increased the weekly unemployment benefit amount by $48 effective July 1, 2026, following a prior $52 increase in 2025 that together fulfilled the commission’s earlier recommendation to raise benefits by $100. She also summarized HB 1319, which would have set a 26-week maximum duration but was continued to 2027, the budget item providing $75,000 for actuarial support, and SB 433, which changed labor-dispute disqualification rules so certain locked-out workers may receive benefits. Staff also reported that the 2025 work group studying annual benefit adjustments did not complete its work, and members discussed reinstating it at a future meeting. VEC Deputy Commissioner Joanna Darkus presented an extensive overview of the unemployment insurance system, including eligibility rules, tax structure, benefit levels, claims trends, trust fund solvency, fraud prevention, and implementation of recent legislation. She said Virginia’s unemployment rate remains low by historical standards, but claim durations and benefit outflows have increased, and the trust fund balance factor is projected at 50.9%, near the statutory trigger for additional employer charges. Members asked about the taxable wage base, employer tax rates, solvency, staffing during the pandemic, and implementation of paid family and medical leave. Darkus said VEC is using ID.me, improving controls, and preparing for paid family and medical leave through regulations, staffing, IT procurement, public comment, and listening sessions. During public comment, a Virginia Poverty Law Center representative urged the commission to strengthen the UI system through state action, warning that federal funding and oversight are unreliable and arguing that Virginia should invest in benefits, administration, and modernization. The meeting ended with no further business and adjournment.

Summary: The Virginia 250 Commission met to review progress on the Commonwealth’s semiquincentennial planning and related business. Members approved the January 8, 2026 minutes, adopted the annual electronic/virtual meeting policy, and received updates on fundraising, advisory councils, partner institutions, and upcoming signature events. Reports highlighted strong donor support for Virginia Commemoration, Inc., with total gifts, pledges, and in-kind support reaching about $8.7 million and more than $2 million in pending requests. A major portion of the meeting focused on 2026 signature programming, including the Tribal Nations Leadership Advisory Council’s event at the Williamsburg Lodge, African-American Advisory Council initiatives such as African Landing Day, the African Landing Memorial opening at Fort Monroe, Juneteenth programming, and nationally broadcast July 4th events in Williamsburg. Other partners reported on exhibits and programming at Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, Mount Vernon, and other historic sites. Carly Fiorina also announced that Virginia 250 and PBS will partner on a live national broadcast of the July 4th celebration, branded “America Made in Virginia.” The commission reviewed and approved the VA 250 and VCI budgets and the reopening of the grant-making process through Virginia Tourism and Virginia Humanities. Members discussed transparency, projected surpluses, and the possibility of later evaluating the economic return on the commission’s work. The body also adopted a resolution naming Carly Fiorina principal executive and Frank Sadler acting executive director, effective January 30, 2026, and ratifying their prior actions on behalf of the commission. Before adjournment, members discussed the Powhatan Mantle and ongoing conversations about its possible exhibition or custodial care involving Virginia tribes and the Ashmolean Museum. The meeting ended with comments reflecting on the commission’s inclusive approach to commemoration and a motion to adjourn in honor of Thomas Jefferson, which was approved.
