IN the NEWS - Virginia Abortion Bill Defeated

And all the people said, Amen... 1 Chronicles 16:36

"Virginia Republicans defeated Tuesday a bill loosening abortion restrictions after the sponsor admitted that the legislation would allow the procedure even after the mother went into labor.
A House subcommittee voted 5-3 to table H.R. 2491, called the Repeal Act, with all Republicans voting to table it and all Democrats voting against.

Virginia House Democrats proposed legislation to allow abortions up to just seconds before that precious child takes their first breath,” said the Virginia House Republicans said on Facebook. “Watch for yourself. Thankfully, our strong conservative majority was able to defeat this bill.”
In a viral video, Democratic Del. Kathy Tran acknowledged Tuesday that her bill would permit abortions on pregnant women at 40 weeks, the end of the third trimester, if deemed necessary to protect her mental or physical health." CP
