It’s clear: When abortion is on the ballot, we win.
We have seen proof of this several times since the fall of Roe v. Wade and once again when our endorsed candidate Lashrecse Aird defeated her anti-choice incumbent opponent Joe Morrissey.
That means we have a real chance to elect a pro-choice majority in November...the best opportunity in a generation...but we cannot do it without your support.
As stated in the HuffPost, “Morrissey, once a self-described “pro-life” Democrat, has repeatedly voted against abortion rights legislation. Last year, he co-sponsored a 20-week abortion ban with one of his Republican colleagues, and earlier this year, he abstained from voting on a bill that would codify reproductive rights into the state constitution.”
Voters have had enough. According to the Washington Post, 75% of Virginians want abortion laws to be protected or less strict. That support for abortion rights helped propel Lashrecse Aird to victory as she defeated this incumbent anti-choice “Democrat” last Tuesday.
A majority of Virginians want abortion to remain protected and accessible. It’s up to us to make sure that happens.
Roe Your Vote Virginia is a PAC focused on helping abortion-rights candidates run and win in Virginia’s 2023 General Assembly elections. We support candidates who are unapologetic and unabashedly pro-choice, and who will fight to keep politicians out of Virginians’ personal reproductive health decisions.
