Virginia gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger’s refusal to affirm life-saving care for babies born alive after failed abortions has drawn sharp condemnation from pro-life advocates, who accuse her of endorsing unlimited abortions throughout pregnancy and undermining parental rights in the process.
During Thursday’s debate, Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears pressed Spanberger on whether a baby born alive after an abortion should receive appropriate medical treatment. Spanberger remained silent, declining to answer the pointed question.
The moment, captured on video, has fueled accusations that Spanberger backs a proposed constitutional amendment in Virginia that would enshrine unlimited abortions up to birth, block future protective regulations and even jeopardize the state’s parental consent law for minors.
“Virginia Society for Human Life (VSHL) is grateful to pro-life Lt. Governor Earle-Sears for highlighting just how extreme Abigail Spanberger really is,” said Olivia Gans Turner, president of the pro-life group. “Under a Spanberger administration, Virginia would see unprecedented growth as an abortion destination and Virginia would become the abortion capital of the south.”
Spanberger’s evasiveness comes amid a broader scandal in Fairfax County Public Schools, where school officials secretly arranged taxpayer-funded abortions for at least two pregnant minor students without notifying their parents. Recordings and handwritten notes released by investigator Walter Curt exposed the scheme, prompting Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin to launch a full criminal investigation.
The controversy has hammered Spanberger’s campaign, tightening the race as voters revisit parental rights issues that doomed Democrat Terry McAuliffe in 2021. When pressed on whether schools should notify parents before facilitating abortions for minors, Spanberger sidestepped the question.
In a separate interview on live television, she stated, “I think it is important that we have a constitutional guarantee of access to abortion.” She added, “The question of abortion is a very politically charged one.”
Earle-Sears called the school scheme “abhorrent,” vowing to “strengthen parental consent laws” so no mother or father is ever blindsided by a secret abortion on their child.
She says nothing in her answers but sound slike she says something. She just gives specious slogan nonanswers.
These are the kind of questions they never answer, and they get away with it because of the formal setting of the debate. In private discussions, we should never let pro-abortion people off the hook. Press them and force a reply. Or until they get mad and/or start crying. They know in their hearts it is infanticide and it is wrong.
She has a face like a chipmunk.
Probably wanting to make Abby Spambergers out of the infants.
A female Ralph Northam.
In the debate she was frozen. She looked like “Bad Bob” on angel dust!
Not surprised. When it comes to life and the left, they prefer death. And monkeypox. And homo stuff. President Trump should tax abortions, at 100%. The howls would shake the dead.
And she supports Post Birth Abortions as long as they are Republican Children.
She better fear for her immortal soul after her journey here on this earth doing whatever damage she does.
VA people are often fall for socialist frauds. Look at their two awful U.S. senators for proof.
Is her blonde hair real? That’s what will elect her.
Don't insult chipmunks. They are smarter than Spanberger...
(She says nothing in her answers but sounds like she says something. SHE JUST GIVES SPECIOUS SLOGAN NONANSWERS.)
That is 100% correct.
I saw but a small clip of her talking.
She said absolutely NOTHING.
I noticed it immediately.
(SHE JUST GIVES SPECIOUS SLOGAN NONANSWERS)
Just like Barack Hussein Obama
🤔🤔🤔
SHE APPARENTLY HAS NO FEAR OF ALMIGHTY GOD.
Not a wise decision......
Luke 12:4-5
21st Century King James Version
4 “And I say unto you, My friends, be not afraid of them
that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 But I will forewarn you Whom ye shall fear:
Fear Him that, after He hath killed,
hath power to cast into Hell;
yea, I say unto you, fear Him!

Matthew 10:28
21st Century King James Version
28 And fear not them that kill the body,
but are not able to kill the soul;
but rather fear Him that is able
to destroy both soul and body in Hell.

Virginians need to be made broadly aware of this. The debate alone didn’t do this.
