Tell your Senator to protect unborn children who can feel pain

Currently, Virginia allows abortions at all stages of pregnancy. The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act would save lives by preventing abortions when unborn children are able to feel pain. This bill will be voted on in a Senate committee tomorrow morning (Jan. 26). Urge your senator to support this bill!

Tell your Senator to OPPOSE SB 930

Doctors should heal, NOT kill; all lives are valuable. Yet SB 930 proposes to legalize assisted suicide in Virginia, and will be voted on in a Senate hearing tomorrow. 

No patient—whether disabled, mentally ill, elderly or otherwise—should ever be abandoned or discarded. Every person potentially facing the end of life should have access to quality medical and palliative care—instead of drugs to hasten their death. If you have not done so already, please urge your Senator to OPPOSE SB 930.

To continue advocating for vital pro-life measures, attend Virginia Pro-Life Day next week on Feb. 1. Please register now!

In prayer and in public, your voices are urgently needed to bring Gospel values to bear on vital decisions being made by those who represent you.
