Heartbreaking. This isn't in New York, this isn't in California, this happened just this week right here in Virginia. @VAHouseDems proposed legislation to provide abortions up to just seconds before that precious child takes their first breath. Watch for yourself.

Democrat @KimAdamsforva is lying again. Republicans support a 15 week limit on elective abortion, with exceptions for rape, incest, and the life and health of the mother. Treating a miscarriage is NOT an elective abortion. But she knows that, and chose to lie.

Some of their policies were so good they decided to delay their implementation until (maybe) after the pandemic. When an economic recovery is underway.
As Virginia's economy and small businesses begin to reopen, Virginia State Democrats decide the best way to help struggling Virginia families was by raising taxes. This is life under a liberal trifecta.

Did you even read the bill before you voted? Because that's not what this bill does at all. It changes the hours warrants can be served.
VA GOP voted today to reinstate no-knock warrants in the commonwealth. As consensus grows in opposition to these risky tactics, and just weeks after Amir Locke was killed during a similar raid, @VAHouseGOP are risking public safety & taking VA backward.
