Make sale of deadly drugs a felony homicide

Two years ago, this body passed a bill to make the sale, manufacture, and distribution of drugs killing our children, our friends and our neighbors a felony homicide. It was vetoed by the last Governor, despite the fact it could have - and would have - saved countless lives. Send me that bill again, and I promise you - I will sign it.

Legalization a problem, never met user who was successful

[On legalization]: "If there was a group of children that were sitting here and I was talking to them about marijuana I would tell them don't use it," Youngkin said at a campaign event in April. "I've never met anybody who habitually used marijuana and was successful and I would tell all them the same thing." In a May appearance on CNBC, Youngkin described legalization as "another problem that's going to be dumped at my feet" if he's elected.
