Abigail Spanberger's View of Abortion is Sick and Gruesome
by Victoria Manning
The Democrat gubernatorial hopeful supports late-term abortions, even when the baby can feel pain, and without parental consent for minors.
Abigail Spanberger proudly endorsed a Virginia constitutional amendment that permits the murder of viable babies until the moment of birth. Virginia already has some of the most liberal abortion laws in the nation, yet Spanberger wants to make them even more extreme by removing parental consent requirements.
The Democrat-controlled legislature passed a constitutional amendment bill in the 2025 session that will permit abortions through birth. If the bill is passed in 2026, it will then become a referendum on the ballot to be enshrined in the Virginia Constitution.
While the legislation indicates the state could regulate abortions in the third trimester, it also prohibits any adverse actions against anyone who participates in a third trimester abortion. Any regulations applied would be nullified because enforcement is prohibited.
In Congress, Spanberger voted for the Women's Health Protection Act of 2022 which would have applied sweeping pro-abortion mandates onto states. If the bill had passed, there would have been few to no restrictions on dangerous at-home abortion services.
Spanberger has been very outspoken about supporting current Virginia laws and the even more radical proposed constitutional amendment. Under both versions of those abortion laws, baby Quinton, born at just 27 weeks gestation, could be killed without any questions asked.
At 27 weeks, a baby's nervous system has formed. The unimaginable pain a baby feels as a "doctor" kills him by injecting a poison into his heart is pure evil.
Democrats decry the death penalty for hardened criminals but don't oppose a death penalty for innocent babies.

Spanberger's Extremism on Abortion Harms Women
The most egregious aspect of Spanberger's radical abortion views is that she supports aborting a baby when they can feel pain. Causing the horrific, painful death of a baby is one of the most unthinkable acts one can imagine. Yet her extremism doesn't stop there.
Democrats like Bill Clinton advocated for abortions to be safe and rare. Yet today's Spanberger Democrats advocate for no restrictions on abortion, including on the extremely dangerous abortion pill harming women right now.
The Restoration of America Foundation found that the abortion pill, mifepristone, is much more dangerous than the Food & Drug Administration admits. From 2017–2023, nearly 11 percent of women who took mifepristone experienced an adverse health event. Those side effects ranged from sepsis to ruptured ectopic pregnancies and even death.
Despite women dying from the abortion pill, Spanberger decried any restrictions on what she called a "medication used to provide safe abortions."
Not only does Spanberger want unlimited access to abortion for Virginians, but she also wants to import women from outside the state to kill their babies in the Commonwealth. Pro-abortion groups claim Spanberger will make Virginia a "safe haven" for people in surrounding states seeking abortions.
It is sheer evil that Democrat politicians like Abigail Spanberger not only advocate for these killings but make them the most prominent issue of their campaign. Remember the face of little baby Quinton anytime you hear a politician advocating for "reproductive rights."
The party of "safe and rare" abortions is now the party of unlimited abortions until birth.
