RICHMOND, Va. – Gov. Ralph Northam is removing what he calls ‘medically-unnecessary’ restrictions on women’s health care.

The governor signed the Reproductive Health Protection Act, sponsored by Senator Jennifer McClellan and House Majority Leader Charniele Herring.

Senate Bill 733 will allow any person jointly licensed by the Board of Medicine and Nursing as a nurse practitioner acting within such person’s scope of practice to perform a first trimester abortion.

Also, the bill eliminates all of the procedures and processes, including the performance of an ultrasound, required to effect a pregnant woman’s informed written consent to the performance of an abortion.

At the same time, the bill does not change the requirement that a pregnant woman’s informed written consent first be obtained.

The bill 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.

Why is the left so obsessed with abortion? What fuels their love of killing innocent babies and exploiting women?

We could chalk it up to greed, since the abortion industry is quite lucrative, but it’s more than that. Those who push abortion and enable abortionists enjoy harming people.

Remember, these are the same people, who if they really had their way, would want to remove about 25% of the population to get their way.

And by remove I mean kill.

When CWII starts. . . .

It hasn’t already?

Those who think our side will win, haven’t been paying attention. They used a virus that they knew nothing about and turned it into a vehicle to strip away our rights.

And all without firing a shot.

But make no mistake, they are fully prepared to fire those shots.

Democrats murdering babies ... “for ourselves and our posterity”, the posterity bit in particular, is entirely lost on these population replacement flavor of traitors.

Yes.

Why anyone gives these people any credibility is beyond me. Even more puzzling is the belief that liberals somehow corner the market on caring and compassion. People who love the idea of killing babies are neither!

Good ‘ol black face a-hole. This POS and others have no idea that they will be the first to be visited when the purge comes. Hypothetically of course.

Its a form of radical egalitarianism. Their belief that women are the EXACT equal of men and that includes sexual activity. Men can impregnate women (many!) and leave women with the consequences. That’s biological physical reality but its unfair to women. The disparity is equalized via abortion. Its all part of maintaining this fanciful notion of absolute exact equality with men even if it violates physical reality. Look at movies & TV shows where 115lb heroine cold cocks 260lb male with one blow.
