Newly sworn-in Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin on Saturday signed a series of executive orders and directives, including actions to jumpstart the economy, eliminate critical race theory in children's education, and slash vaccine mandates.
"I come to this moment, and to this office, knowing we must bind the wounds of division. Restore trust. Find common cause for the common good. And strengthen the spirit of Virginia," Youngkin said at his inaugural address, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

A list of Youngkin's executive orders, provided by the press release, are as follows:
