Tell our VA Dem Legislators to Protect Abortion rights NOW!

Codify access to abortion NOW, while Dems still have control.

RESOURCES

The Virginia election dealt a blow to plans to enshrine the promises of Roe into law and expand access to abortion for Virginians during the 2022 legislative session. But we don’t have to be defeated in our will to power up to protect Roe NOW! There is a window of opportunity to codify abortion rights before the General Assembly opens on Jan.12th. Technically, the legislature is still in a Special Session! We just need bold action by leadership in the Democratic House and Senate to make this happen.

Virginia Democrats have an opportunity to step up and preserve our rights NOW while they still have control. Virginia could join the 14 other states and DC that guarantee access to safe and legal abortion.

We know that Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin can use executive action to limit access to safe and legal abortion. We can't leave it up to him.

Take nothing for granted. Even with all our progress in Virginia on securing reproductive rights, there are no safe states. In this pivotal moment for abortion rights, we must use every tool in our tool box.

For 50 years, many felt that the U.S. Supreme Court would protect Roe v. Wade, but now, the Supreme Court is poised to overturn the protections contained in Roe. Restrictive, cruel, dangerous anti-abortion laws such as Texas’ S.B. 8 and ‘bounty hunter’ abortion bans and the Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban stand.

This is a wake up call to all Democrats. Our freedom and dignity are not up for debate. We must demonstrate the same level of urgency in protecting abortion rights and reproductive health that Republicans have shown in attempting to take it away. We cannot go backwards in Virginia.

This is about protecting the most vulnerable and marginalized people who already lack adequate access to reproductive healthcare. It's about to get even worse. Virginia Democrats must ACT! Time is ticking.

We will not go back. That rage you feel about what is happening.

That's your power. Use it. .
