Religious dogma should not be permitted to threaten women's lives in VA or anywhere. While everyone is entitled to his or her personal beliefs, those beliefs should always stop where my body, or other women's bodies begin. Full stop. Any hindrance of women's access to safe, affordable health care of any type, and abortion in particular, puts women's lives at risk unnecessarily. Restrictions will not slow or stop abortion. They will only jeopardize women's health and survival.
