There are moments when political language collapses under the weight of reality. A living child in a toilet is one of those moments. According to arrest and search warrants reported in North Carolina, an eighteen-year-old woman allegedly obtained mifepristone, took it during the third trimester, and delivered a premature child […]

Virginia’s Constitution should be a shield for innocent life, not a weapon against it. That is the final question before us on Question 1. Will the highest law of our Commonwealth recognize the unborn child as a human life worthy of protection, or will it establish abortion as a fundamental […]

Part of the reason committed citizens have to work so hard to defeat the three fall referendums with a NO vote is Virginia GOP cowardice. The Republican Party of Virginia too often resembles the Washington Generals – the team hired to lose every game to the Harlem Globetrotters. In 2020, […]

Question 1 cannot be understood by reading only the phrase “reproductive freedom.” We must read the amendment as a complete legal system. It creates a fundamental right, defines which state interests may justify restrictions, requires the least restrictive means, limits third-trimester prohibitions, protects patients and medical professionals from penalties, and […]

Question 3 would automatically restore political rights to every person convicted of a felony upon release from incarceration. No application would be required. No governor or other authority would review the case. Release from prison – not completion of the sentence, restitution, probation, parole, or demonstrated rehabilitation – would become […]

The pro-life cause will not prevail because we shout louder. It will prevail when ordinary Virginians can explain, calmly and confidently, why every human life deserves protection and why Question 1 would place sweeping abortion language inside our Constitution. This article is not ammunition for an argument with someone determined […]

Question 1 does not merely protect today’s abortion laws. It would place abortion in Virginia’s Bill of Rights as a fundamental right and force every future protection to survive the most demanding constitutional review. That changes who governs. Decisions now made through public debate, elections, and legislation would increasingly be […]

Question 2 is presented as a necessary response to current federal law. But Virginia already issues marriage licenses to same-sex couples, and those marriages are recognized under the United States Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision. The immediate question is not whether those licenses exist. The question is whether Virginia should independently […]

The hardest pregnancies demand clear thinking and compassion. When a mother’s life is threatened, doctors must act with urgency, and slogans should never interfere with emergency care. We can defend unborn life without pretending every pregnancy can continue safely. We can protect mothers without declaring that an intentional death is […]

Virginia voters should vote no on all three constitutional amendments this November. Not because every arguement raised by supporters is imaginary. Not because every hard case has an easy answer. But because a constitution is supposed to do one thing above all else: set durable guardrails. It is not meant […]

The proposed abortion amendment should force Virginians to confront a grim fact: eugenic thinking does not disappear simply because the word becomes disreputable. Question 1 would expand constitutional protection for abortion while leaving the unborn child entirely outside the amendment’s protection. In a Commonwealth with Virginia’s history, that should alarm […]

Today’s judiciary has unquestionably become the most powerful of our three branches of government, creating policy on everything from the environment to religious expression. Interestingly, however, this type of policy-making was never intended under the Constitution. This is made clear in the “Federalist Papers”. For example, “Federalist #51” declares that […]

Just five plus years after voters in the Commonwealth approved a legislative commission to draw congressional and legislative boundaries by a huge two to one margin, Virginia Democrats decided to ignore the voters’ expressed wishes. Having seen GOP Governor Glenn Youngkin botch completely the 2025 election, by forcing the party […]

Question 2 speaks directly about marriage. It does not expressly mention schools, child custody, adoption, athletics, or parental rights. We should say that plainly. We should also understand how constitutional law works: broad principles do not remain confined to the first dispute that produced them. Once sex and gender are […]

The Democratic-dominated Virginia legislature wants to expand abortion in the Commonwealth through a referendum marketed as a “right to reproductive freedom,” as if there should EVER be a constitutional right to annihilate one of our helpless unborn children. What Democrats do not want discussed is the historic connection between legal […]

Question 2 asks Virginia to treat sex and gender as irrelevant to marriage. We cannot accept that premise because marriage is the institution that joins the two sexes and connects men, women, and children across generations. Men and women are equal in human dignity, but we are not interchangeable. Our […]

Question 1 is often described as protecting medical decisions. Its language does more. It would create a “fundamental right to reproductive freedom,” forbid Virginia from directly or indirectly burdening that right, require any restriction to survive a compelling-state-interest test using the least restrictive means, and declare the provision self-executing. Every […]

In 2025, as Dwayne Yancey of Cardinal News noted, Northern Virginia’s percentage of statewide vote declined from 38 percent in 2024 to 37% in 2025. Part of that decline may have been the increased number of mailed ballots which the Harris campaign used to capture Virginia in ‘24, as Trump […]

We oppose Question 2 because religious liberty means more than permission to preach inside a sanctuary. It includes the freedom to organize our churches, schools, ministries, businesses, charities, and families according to convictions we believe are true. A constitutional amendment redefining marriage while offering no express protection for conscience places […]

Question 1 calls reproductive freedom a fundamental right belonging to “every individual.” It forbids Virginia from directly or indirectly denying, burdening, or infringing that right unless the Commonwealth can satisfy the highest constitutional test. Yet the amendment never expressly preserves parental consent, parental notification, or a parent’s authority to guide […]

Supporters of Question 1 point to its third-trimester language as proof that the amendment permits limits. We should read the words before accepting that assurance. The amendment says Virginia may regulate abortion in the third trimester, but it also says the Commonwealth may never prohibit one when a physician judges […]

Virginia voters were asked in 2006 whether marriage should be defined in our Constitution as the union of one man and one woman. They answered yes. That language is now unenforceable under the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2015 Obergefell decision, but it remains part of Virginia’s constitutional history and records the […]

We oppose Question 1 because the first duty of a constitution is to protect those who cannot protect themselves. This amendment would place abortion inside Virginia’s Bill of Rights as a “fundamental right,” while leaving the unborn child outside the constitutional frame. The issue begins with one question: What is […]

Life and marriage are not abstract political questions. Life answers the most fundamental question any society can ask: Who is a human being, and whose life must the law protect? Marriage answers the next: What is a family, and does government recognize an order that exists before the state – […]
