Virginia
We must protect the right to contraception before it’s too late.
When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Justice Clarence Thomas wrote that the court should also “reconsider” the right to contraception.
Three weeks later, Congress voted on the Right to Contraception Act. Ninety percent of House Republicans voted against it, including Virginia Reps. Ben Cline, Bob Good, Morgan Griffith, and Rob Wittman.
Extreme lawmakers are putting our right to contraception at risk.
Luckily, leaders in Virginia’s state legislature are stepping up. Both the state House and Senate passed the Right to Contraception Act, protecting Virginians’ right to contraception, including condoms, the pill, IUDs, and Plan B. Unfortunately, the majority of GOP members of the General Assembly voted against these simple protections of our freedoms.
Now, all eyes are on the Governor. If we want him to stand up to extremists and stand for Virginians, he needs to hear from us now.
