Governor Abigail Spanberger&#8217;s amended version contained language that declared the act an emergency, which would allow it to take effect immediately, but the legislature did not approve the changes with a 4\/5ths vote, which is supposedly what&#8217;s required in order for that &#8220;emergency&#8221; provision to be adopted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Virginia legislative website lists the effective date for HB 1525 as July 1, but the Virginia State Police put out a notice on Tuesday that declared the law is already in effect.
