Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares has defended his decision not to join most of his Republican counterparts around the country in supporting a lawsuit challenging the safety and approval of the abortion medication mifepristone.
Youngkin backed failed efforts earlier this year in the politically divided General Assembly to enact a 15-week ban with exceptions for rape, incest and the life of the mother, something the governor reiterated his support for in remarks with reporters Monday.said. “I think particularly in … a swing state like Virginia, that it’s important to try to find consensus. I think that’s what the governor is trying to do.
“The mainstream Democratic Party’s position right now is: anytime, anywhere up until the moment of birth after the gender reveal, paid for by taxpayers,” he said. “Most Virginians don’t support that, either.” “MAGA extremists will try any and every tactic to strip away our basic civil rights, and they will not stop at healthcare. … It is our job to listen to our constituents, not dictate how they live their lives,” House Democratic Leader Don Scott said in a statement Tuesday in response to Youngkin’s remarks.
