Republicans in the Virginia House defeated a Democrat effort to change the legislative body’s rules and put an amendment on the ballot that would have codified legal protections for abortionists in the commonwealth’s constitution.
In a final vote on Feb. 23, Republican delegates voted down a rule change to resurrect the radical “Right to Abortion” Amendment, proposed by House Democrats earlier in the 2023 session.
The amendment would have sanctioned the killing of the unborn in the Virginia Constitution, legalized abortion up to and during birth, made possible taxpayer-funded abortion, and inhibited the passage of future laws to protect the unborn.
The amendment itself never mentions abortion or women at all, instead defining a “fundamental right to reproductive freedom” as being inherent in every “individual.”
As seen in a candid 2022 Senate bill, however, the amendment would have legalized disturbing procedures to kill and extract a full-term baby from a woman’s body. These techniques include “electrical vacuum aspiration,” “intact dilation and extraction” (or partial-birth abortion), and “intrafetal injection” of poisonous chemicals.
That bill would have given abortionists license to choose an alternative method of killing through a provision of “Method not listed” with almost no limitations. The so-called Right to Abortion Amendment would have made unborn babies vulnerable to these assaults up until birth. Advocates made no apologies for their gruesome stance.

A defeat for the party of death who wants to kill people as fetuses, as babies, trans them if they’re kids or euthanize them if they’re old or disabled.
Soulless ghouls.
“Every individual” has a fundamental right to “reproductive rights”? So somehow that presumably means a mother can decide to have an abortion or not abut the father can decide nothing, and is obliged to pay child support whether they intended to reproduce or not.
Everybody who is physically capable of reproducing is free to reproduce, or not, as they see fit.
If they do not wish to reproduce, they need to avoid engaging in reproductive actions.
Haveing reproduced, however, gives nobody the right to slaughter the newly produced person.
They have souls, and they will be fully aware of the recompense due to them when the LORD returns.
Godless ghouls
These proposals literally make me sick.
