On November 3, Virginia voters will decide whether to amend the state constitution to establish a fundamental right to reproductive freedom, including abortion. Virginia already permits third-trimester abortions when continuing the pregnancy poses a serious threat to the mother’s life or health. What the amendment would change is the legal standard. Instead of requiring three physicians to certify a substantial and irremediable threat to health, the amendment would protect abortions that a single physician considers medically indicated to protect physical or mental health, without defining a minimum level of impairment. It would also place these protections in the Virginia Constitution, making them much harder for future lawmakers to change.

As ususal, the Gooferment is inserting itself into murky moral waters. It appears that the amendment is fatally flawed by what it hides and fails to define.
Luckily, I’ve been out of VA for a while so I won’t face this moral quandary.
For me, it’s easy clean and simple. Life begins at conception. Being pro-life and pro-choice, I think the Gooferment has a very small role in this process. We, as a society, should believe that the “human rights” inure to the baby (i.e., fetus just confounds the issue). Period!
