WHEREAS: The people of Virginia oppose the current laws allowing abortion-on-demand and want innocent human life to be protected, especially when it is most defenseless; and
WHEREAS: Now is the time to update Virginia’s abortion laws to protect life beginning at conception, ending the over 18,000 abortions that occur in Virginia each year; and
WHEREAS: Every abortion ends a unique human life, worthy of love and respect, and entitled to life and to be treated with dignity, regardless of the circumstances of conception; and
WHEREAS: Virginia legislators have an opportunity to seize this moment to create the strongest system possible to protect women and the preborn from the predatory abortion industry;
THEREFORE: We call on you, as our elected officials to end all abortions by passing a Life at Conception Act and oppose any attempt to stall it, amend it, or otherwise weaken it through so-called “compromises” which allow the corporate abortion industry to maintain its power.
