Virginia is already the most pro-abortion state in the South with virtually zero protection for preborn babies.  On top of that, an Abortion Amendment is in process that would enshrine “reproductive rights” into the state constitution.

This is a major threat to Pregnancy Centers.  If the amendment passes, it could easily be interpreted to mean that PRCs that don’t offer abortion services are “denying, burdening, or infringing” on the rights of Virginia citizens. We would be exposed to legal threats that could hamper or even stop our ability to minister to women and babies in our communities.

The Amendment has already passed once through the VA General Assembly.  The Election on November 4th, 2025, for the House of Delegates must occur, and then the new General Assembly will vote a second time for the Amendment in January 2026. If it passes, then it will be on the ballot for a popular vote in November 2026.

The House of Delegates is 51-49 Pro-Abortion.  If that flips on November 4^th, the problem goes away for now.  If it doesn’t and goes to a popular vote in November 2026, analysts say only a miracle would stop it from passing, as polling on the amendment is 61-39 in favor.
