🚨🚨🔥HERE'S PROOF: VIRGINIA'S AMENDMENT 1 CONFIRMS *NO* PARENTAL CONSENT: The Amendment 1 ballot question does NOT use the actual OFFICIAL language that would be inserted into the Virginia Constitution if this amendment passed.
As a former Lieutenant Governor & Member of the House of Delegates, Winsome Earle-Sears has expertise in state laws & delved further into what this Article in the state Constitution would declare in the OFFICIAL, Democrat-approved language.
▶️What she found was that all INDIVIDUALS would be granted nearly unlimited rights to “reproductive freedom” and abortion because the proponents did NOT carve out any exceptions for underage girls and boys. Therefore, any effort to enforce a law for parental consent or notification about reproduction-related behaviors, including abortion, contraception, gender transitions, & fertility care, would be ruled UNconstitutional, and no person could be penalized for assisting minor children with these behaviors.
▶️We know this because proponents DID place the word "adults" into the Amendment 2 ballot question on "marriage."
▶️As seen in other states with nearly identical constitutional language, courts have STRUCK DOWN laws intended to moderate and place guardrails around these permissive, open-ended behaviors.
☑️Watch Earle-Sears' explanation and follow along with this text verbatim:
☑️HERE is what the Virginia CONSTITUTION would say: FULL TEXT OF AMENDMENT
ARTICLE I
BILL OF RIGHTS
Section 11-A. Fundamental right to reproductive freedom.
"That every INDIVIDUAL has the fundamental right to reproductive freedom, including the ability to make and carry out decisions relating to one's own prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, contraception, abortion care, miscarriage management, and fertility care.
"An INDIVIDUAL's right to reproductive freedom shall not be, directly or indirectly, denied, burdened, or infringed upon unless justified by a compelling state interest achieved by the least restrictive means.
"Notwithstanding the above, the Commonwealth may regulate the provision of abortion care in the third trimester, provided that in no circumstance shall the Commonwealth prohibit an abortion (i) that in the professional judgment of a physician is medically indicated to protect the life or physical or mental health of the pregnant individual or (ii) when in the professional judgment of a physician the fetus is not viable.
"The Commonwealth shall not discriminate in the protection or enforcement of this fundamental right.
"The Commonwealth shall not penalize, prosecute, or otherwise take adverse action against an individual based on such individual's own exercise of this fundamental right or such individual's own actual, potential, perceived, or alleged pregnancy outcomes, including miscarriage, stillbirth, or abortion. The Commonwealth shall not penalize, prosecute, or otherwise take adverse action against any individual for aiding or assisting another individual in exercising such other individual's right to reproductive freedom with such other individual's voluntary consent.
"For the purposes of this section, a state interest is compelling only if it is for the limited purpose of maintaining or improving the health of an individual seeking care, consistent with accepted clinical standards of care and evidence-based medicine, and does not infringe on that individual's autonomous decision making.
"This section shall be self-executing. Any provision of this section held invalid shall be severable from the remaining portions of the section."

☑️However, this BRIEF question is what you see on the BALLOT:
Question Amendment 1: Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to (i) protect the freedom to make personal decisions about prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, birth control, abortion, miscarriage management, and fertility care; (ii) protect doctors, nurses, and patients from being punished for these decisions; and (iii) allow for restrictions on access to abortion during the third trimester of pregnancy except when the patient's health is at risk or the pregnancy cannot survive?
🔥VOTE NO on this EXTREME Amendment 1!🔥

@onceknownasstan It is easy to confuse radical Muslims and our neighbors here. We have lived next door to two Muslim families, one from Iran. We liked both of them. But, we also lived in Fairfax when radical Muslims preached at the Mosque. We didn’t like that. We didn’t confuse the two.
@DavidJHarrisJr I wish it was obvious, but that is not it. How About the governors of New York, Minnesota, and California? They brought in illegals, gave them sanctuary, paid them off with corrupt money and blame ICE for all their problems!
