Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli will hold a news conference at his office at 2pm EST, after he has had a chance to thoroughly review it.
“I am gratified we prevailed. This won’t be the final round, as this will ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court, but today is a critical milestone in the protection of the Constitution,” said Cuccinelli.
