There is one week left for Glenn Youngkin to take action on the legislation 

VIRGINIA – With just one week until the deadline for action on the Right to Contraception Act, Winsome Earle-Sears still owes Virginians answers on why she “couldn’t resist” voting against a bill that would guarantee Virginia women access to birth control and contraception. In recent weeks, Sears has dodged the media and declined to comment on her dangerous record on reproductive rights. 

“Winsome Earle-Sears’ tie-breaking no vote makes clear that she won’t protect Virginians’ fundamental freedoms. Virginians have questions about why Sears couldn’t resist voting no, and Sears must answer for her record,” said DPVA Spokesperson Maggie Amjad.
