Youngkin to seek 15-week abortion law in Virginia after high court ruling
Youngkin has asked four Virginia lawmakers — all antiabortion Republicans — to craft legislation, and he said that setting the cutoff at 20 weeks might be necessary to attract more consensus in a divided Capitol. He said he supports exceptions for rape, incest and cases where the life of the mother is at risk.
Youngkin has asked two state senators and two delegates to work on the legislation. They are Sen. Siobhan Dunnavant , an obstetrician; Sen. Steve Newman ; Del. Kathy Byron and Del. Margaret Ransone . “We’ve got a process in Virginia to work through,” Youngkin said. “I am a pro-life governor, I also am very, very aware of Virginia. … A governor can’t do it on his own. And it’s going to require … work across the aisle. And so we’ve got to work over the next few months to find a place that we can land.”
