Environmental Initiatives
Delegate Reid has been an environmental champion in the Virginia General Assembly. In 2021, Delegate Reid introduced HB1979 (Electric Vehicle Rebate Program) which provides for state tax credits when purchasing a new or used EV. However, the program has not been funded, meaning Virginians are not yet eligible for the rebate. Delegate Reid has introduced budget requests to fund the program numerous times, but without success.
