Hampton officials adjust the city’s 2026 budget to address funding cuts for gun violence prevention after Governor Glenn Youngkin vetoes $2.5 million meant for local initiatives. The state funds were intended to support programs such as the Violence Interrupter and housing stabilization through Riverside Hand-In-Hand, both critical in reducing gun violence in the city.
