Virginia Catholic Conference

In this final week of the 2021 Virginia General Assembly session, bills that would drastically expand abortion coverage in Virginia’s health exchange (SB 1276 and HB 1896) – which passed their respective chambers earlier in session – will soon be on Governor Northam’s desk.
Take a stand for life by urging the Governor to veto these dangerous and tragic abortion expansion bills.
Click here for a 2020 Marist Poll we consulted for the statistics cited in our pre-written message.
