Senator Emily Jordan, a Republican, passionately argued for the amendment, emphasizing crystal clear protections for what she described as fundamental rights. She pointed to multiple references in the legislation underscoring the need to provide care for infants born alive, regardless of the circumstances surrounding their birth.
Senator Mark Obenshain, speaking at a recent session, highlighted the dangers posed by the proposal. He noted that 80 percent of Americans, including a majority in Virginia, support reasonable restrictions on abortion, such as parental notification and consent laws for minors.
In an aggressive step towards enshrining unlimited abortion in Virginia, the Commonwealth’s Democrat-majority Senate late last month advanced a ballot measure that would codify abortion until birth in the state’s constitution.
