Governor Abigail Spanberger(@GovernorVA):I was honored to sign HB 392 with Delegate Askew in memory of Dawann Steagall, who inspired this legislation. This bill is part of the Queen Candis Act, a first-in-the-nation package for Sickle Cell care. This Sickle Cell Awareness Month, we recognize the thousands of Virginians living with sickle cell disease and work to improve awareness and reduce barriers to care.
