NARAL PRO-CHOICE VIRGINA ANNOUNCES CANDIDATE ENDORSEMENTS FOR 2005
Governor
There is no question that Republican Jerry Kilgore is an extremely anti-choice candidate who would sign a bill eliminating the right to choose in Virginia, and who might even sign legislation curtailing access to contraception for Virginians. Tim Kaine, the Democrat, has said he would not sign such legislation, but he embraces many of the restrictions on a woman’s right to choose that are opposed by NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia. We cannot therefore offer any endorsement in this year’s race for governor. Having said that, Tim Kaine has listened closely to our concerns during his campaign, while Kilgore’s office did not even respond to requests for meetings on the issue. Between these two men, we see more hope for the women of Virginia in Kaine’s candidacy and we are eager and willing to work with him on these important issues should he be elected. .
