In support of Planned Parenthood

Hundreds of people rallied and marched through downtown Richmond Tuesday night in response to reports that the United States Supreme Court plans to overturn Roe v. Wade. In case you missed it Tuesday, Governor Glenn Youngkin said he believes that states should be deciding the laws around abortion. “It’s premature to speculate on what the Supreme Court’s decision will be; however, we learned from listening to Virginians over the last year that we have much common ground on this issue,” Youngkin said in a prepared statement. “I am pro-life, and I have been very clear about that since the day I launched my campaign.”
