Reported on behalf of our sister organization, Students for Life Action  FIRST, STATE LEGISLATIVE EFFORT of Students for Life Action headed to Governor’s Desk for Signature – A Law to Protect Women and the Preborn from Dangerous, On-line Distribution of Chemical Abortion Pills    “Too much of the debate over abortion allowed by mainstream media focuses on whether abortionists want to be bothered by laws that help women and the preborn. Their inconvenience is irrelevant,” said Hawkins. “Women have died when taking Chemical Abortion Pills and abusers have slipped those drugs to women against their wishes. Preventing those horrors is

In Virginia, Pro-Abortion Lawmakers Advance the ERA – The “Everything Related to Abortion” Act

 

“Virginia abortion advocates are setting up a legal fight for years to come, trying to pass the ERA to find a way into the Constitution as Roe v. Wade is collapsing,” said Students for Life of America’s Kristan Hawkins.

WASHINGTON D.C. (11-20-19) – Virginia Democrats put the ERA at the forefront of their legislative agenda this week, laying the groundwork for an extensive struggle over the future of the almost 100-year-old measure. “ERA is a bad idea on so many fronts, but it will become the trial lawyers’ full employment act, as it will be fought in courts across the country,” said Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins.

“Despite the fact that twice a deadline has passed without achieving 38 states in favor of the ERA or that five states actually rescinded their ratification, the abortion lobby is going all out in Virginia to achieve something Roe v. Wade never could – create a Constitutional link to abortion. This will expand abortion in the United States. Already state courts have found that state-based ERA laws require taxpayer funding of abortion.

“This state-based effort is being matched in the House which this month moved a resolution forward to change the rules so that the failed ERA can try again for passage. Ironically, the ERA can actually harm women’s interests by wiping out laws designed to protect women’s interests and will create legal chaos in a debate that will certainly follow over the definition of ‘sex,’” noted Hawkins. “The abortion lobby is trying to use stealth to quietly set up an even more radical abortion framework through the ERA under the pretense of women’s rights.”
