Did Virginia voters ever think their Senators Tim Kaine and Mark Warner and Governor Northam would sanction infanticide?
It is a matter of common sense and basic human decency to require, as Senate bill 311, Born-Alive survivors protection act would have, that any health care practitioner present when a child is born alive following an abortion be given the same degree of care to preserve the life and health of the child as would be given to any other newborn. It is an outrage that Virginia’s U.S. Senators Warner and Kaine voted against this critical lifesaving legislation. This is not an abortion rights issue. This is protecting the weak and most vulnerable among us.
