Virginia govenor signs bill

Although so much more should have been done to make the needed appropriate changes in Virginia's mental health system, some bills were signed into law on the anniversary of this tragedy by that state's Governor, as mentioned in the following article, Kaine signs bills aimed at mental health reform.
