September 7th
Virginia Reproductive Equity Alliance
Special Session Call to Action in Richmond
Right after the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Governor Glenn Youngkin praised the decision and stated his intentions to seek a 15-week abortion ban in Virginia. The General Assembly meets on September 7 in Special Session, and we expect Governor Youngkin to put forward an abortion ban. We need to be ready!
Please join the Virginia Reproductive Equity Alliance
in defending our reproductive freedom from anti-abortion extremists on September 7th.
