The 164th Virginia General Assembly, consisting of members who were elected to the Senate in 2023 and the House of Delegates in 2025, convened on January 14, 2026. Democrats retained a majority in the Virginia Senate and expanded their majority in the House of Delegates, with Democratic former State Senator Ghazala Hashmi becoming the next Lieutenant Governor. The 2023 Senate election was the first, and the 2025 House election was the second, to be held under maps for both houses of the Virginia General Assembly which were approved by the Virginia Redistricting Commission and the Supreme Court of Virginia in 2021, which were the first in Virginia history to not be drawn and approved by the legislature.
The 2026 session began on January 14 and is set to adjourn on March 14, 2026. The 2024 special session that was called in the previous term of the Virginia General Assembly by Governor Glenn Youngkin briefly ran concurrently into the 2026 session until it was adjourned on January 15, 2026.
