Delegate Michael Webert: How Regulatory Reform Saved Virginians Thousands

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Virginia Delegate Michael Webert to discuss the impact of regulatory reform and what’s at stake for the future of the Commonwealth.

Delegate Webert breaks down how the Virginia Office of Regulatory Management—created under Governor Glenn Youngkin—has streamlined burdensome rules, cut red tape, and saved taxpayers significant money, including an estimated $26,000 per home.

With a looming deadline and shifting political leadership, those reforms are now at risk. Webert shares concerns about increasing regulations, rising energy costs, and the potential rollback of policies that have helped businesses grow and families afford housing.

From farming to housing to energy policy, this conversation highlights how everyday regulations can quietly shape the cost of living—and why protecting reform efforts is critical to keeping Virginia competitive and affordable.
