Question 1 in Virginia Would Legalize Unlimited Abortions Up to Birth– www.lifenews.com

Virginia voters will decide in November whether to write a abortions up to birth into the state constitution. Ballot Question 1 would allow unlimited abortions until a baby is born.

Early in-person voting begins Friday, September 18. A simple majority would adopt or reject the amendment and the result would not return to the General Assembly or the governor.

Olivia Gans Turner, director of the Virginia Society for Human Life, said the proposal is not the modest health-care measure described on the ballot.

“The hard truth is that this amendment is not about protecting women’s safe reproductive care, but merely more political action designed to make abortion up to birth permanently legal in Virginia,” she says.
