Post-Session Update from NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia
Debate over the state budget dominated most of the legislative session--and anti-choice legislators used the opportunity to play politics with the budget by proposing amendments that would have adversely impacted reproductive health and rights. We were able to defeat attempts to impose unecessary and onerous regulations on abortion providers, further restrict low income women's access to abortion, and prohibit family planning funding to organizations that perform or refer for abortion.
Unfortunately, we also faced our first significant loss in several years with the passage of legislation to authorize "Choose Life" license plates and generate funding for crisis pregnancy centers. Though many assume that having a Democratic majority in the state senate will prevent anti-choice legislation from reaching the desk of the Governor, this bill demonstrates that we are far from a pro-choice majority in either house of the General Assembly. Should we fail to elect a pro-choice Governor this November, there is a significant risk of additional anti-choice legislation becoming law in Virginia.
The license plate debate yielded one positive outcome, however, in that we were able to being a substantive conversation with state legislators and the public about crisis pregnancy centers. Many people mistakenly believe that these centers do nothing more than provide materials and support to women who have made the decision to carry an unintended pregnancy to term. In reality, they have an extreme anti-choice agenda and often misinform and mislead women about their options. Though they appear to act as impartial medical facilities, their function is primarily political--to berate and coerce those women they call "abortion-minded" into carrying the pregnancy to term. We have many opportunities in the coming months to continue the conversation that began with these license plates.
We hope you'll stay engaged as we move into what will be an extremely important election cycle for reproductive rights in Virginia. Elections matter--and this year, we have one of the best opportunities in a long time to showcase the power of the pro-choice vote and protect reproductive rights for years to come.
