By the way... 3rd trimester abortions are already legal in Virginia. Trans bill would have removed some obstacles.

Abortion; eliminate certain requirements. Eliminates the requirement that an abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy and prior to the third trimester be performed in a hospital. The bill eliminates all the procedures and processes, including the performance of an ultrasound, required to effect a woman's informed written consent to the performance of an abortion; however, the bill does not change the requirement that a woman's informed written consent be first obtained. The bill eliminates the requirement that two other physicians certify that a third trimester abortion is necessary to prevent the woman's death or impairment of her mental or physical health, as well as the need to find that any such impairment to the woman's health would be substantial and irremediable. The bill also removes language classifying facilities that perform five or more first-trimester abortions per month as hospitals for the purpose of complying with regulations establishing minimum standards for hospitals.

Good video here on all this, easier for some to follow than reading. They go into the laws, ones already in place and how these new ones aren’t about protecting the life of a mother, that’s already covered, it’s about a woman having the right to abort a baby at any time for any reason.

Unbelievable. Well, she’s a democrat so it’s more believable but still outrageous.

If this is a vanity, why is it posted in the News Forum? Vanities belong in Chat.

Is everybody aware this bill was killed in subcommittee and will NOT become law?

See third paragraph here.
