Geary Higgins, a Republican who was elected to the Virginia State House in 2024 to represent the state’s 30th House district, has recently used his social media platform to comment on several state political issues and developments.

On February 11, 2026, Higgins posted about gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger’s position on the car tax. In his post, he stated: “If elected governor, Spanberger said she would work with anyone — Democrats and Republicans — to get rid of the car tax, also known as the personal property tax on vehicles.” Pure lies… Spanberger talks car tax… | Abigail Spanberger for Governor https://t.co/oK7E53ZelP https://t.co/JSJ7ycmvtQ

Two days later, on February 13, 2026, Higgins commented on proposed changes to local zoning regulations by Richmond lawmakers. He wrote: “Richmond forcing increased residential zoning districts on localities ‘to create additional… development beyond that (currently) permitted by right’. Watch for more wisdom from Richmond on forced local zoning for apartments, solar arrays, windmills and etc. https://t.co/N0nzPLNB0T”

Later that same day, Higgins shared a brief message regarding an unspecified positive development: “Great news for now! https://t.co/QqAXAUGaIW”

Higgins succeeded Nick Freitas as representative of Virginia’s 30th House district following his election in 2024.
