  • To Support Virginians in Their Ability to Make Their Own Reproductive Healthcare Decisions and Have Real Access to Comprehensive Reproductive Healthcare
    Statement of Intent To support Virginians in their ability to make their own reproductive healthcare decisions and have real access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare. Reproductive rights are under attack across the country and existentially threatened by the current federal Admin- istration. Virginia legislators have an obligation to both protect and expand reproductive rights in the Common- wealth and to be the bulwark against encroachments on these rights from wherever they may come. As a representative of the people of Virginia, duly elected to govern on behalf of all Virginians, I promise that I will fight to: • Defend a person's right to make personal, private reproductive health decisions, including whether to choose or refuse contraception, carry a pregnancy to term or have an abortion. • Protect and improve affordable access to the full range of contraceptive services and options for all Virginians, including emergency contraception. • Protect reproductive health through scientifically and medically accurate, age-appropriate, effective sexuality education and access to family planning and birth control. • Protect a person’s ability to have healthy pregnancies and births, including her right to parent her children or to choose adoption. • Address inequities in reproductive health care access, particularly those that disproportionately affect low- income people and people of color. • Defend a person’s right to access reproductive health care free from intimidation, threats, coercion, or vio- lence. • Support a Constitutional Amendment to the Virginia Constitution enshrining the human right to bodily autono- my and reproductive choice. Governor Ralph Northam (D) Delegate John J. Bell (D) Delegate Kenneth R. Plum (D) Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax (D) Delegate Jeffrey M.

Although this Voting Record does not reflect all elements considered by a lawmaker when voting or represent a complete profile of a legislator, it can be a guide in evaluating your legislator’s attitude toward small business. Note that many issues that affect small business are addressed in committees and never make it to a floor vote in the House or Senate.

  • 2020 VPAP Annual Report
    Staying Nimble FINDING NEW WAYS TO ELEVATE PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING Top of the News 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Ballot ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Letter from the Board Chair On many levels, 2020 was both historic and humbling. A global pandemic and economic crisis. Social unrest and calls for racial justice. Political extremism and democracy under siege. Any one of these topics would be enough to contend with in a normal year, but at once 2020 brought many issues into plain sight. What we learned last year is that at a time of uncertainty and upheaval, the public’s hunger for reliable news and information grows exponentially. The STAFF challenge for the Virginia Public Access Project was to meet that demand, while adapting to remote work and rethinking nearly every aspect of our operation. David M. Poole Executive Director We enhanced VaNews to add “Top of the News” for those who value a quick summary of headlines. We developed a COVID-19 dashboard to make it easy Ric Arenstein to track coronavirus cases and deaths as reported by the Virginia Department Major Gifts Officer of Health. And we modified our traditional election night coverage to account for early voting and delayed returns. Rachel Dominy Graphic Design and I am proud of the many ways, large and small, the VPAP team seized Communications Manager opportunity and adapted during such a challenging year. You will find a few of those instances outlined in this annual report. Jason Kostyk Data Developer All of this success was made possible by the encouragement and support of our nearly 1,500 donors.

  • Why Do You Need That Gun? Your Comments Needed
    A Publication of Virginia Citizens Defense League, Inc. ♦ Summer 2016 ♦ WHY DO YOU NEED THAT GUN? VCDL IN NATIONAL NEWS How many of us have ever been asked “Why do you need that gun?” Perhaps it’s a spouse, or a family member, or a friend — or an anti-gunner. How do you answer? Here’s some food for thought. The item was originally written by an individual who prefers to remain unnamed, partly because the answer is irrelevant, and partly to avoid noting he may have guns in his home. The individual was responding to a friend after announcing he had ordered a gun through his dealer. Your Editor has chosen to respect this request. Your question... why do I NEED this gun, is the same as that asked by anti-gunners, and for the same reason. Implicit in the question is the statement, "I don't need it; why do you?" I'm not saying that you or your question is anti-gun, but am pointing out the similarity based on a self-perceived notion of "need." I don't need that gun, and I wouldn't buy it rather than pay the rent, buy baby formula or have the cancer surgery. You might ask Jay Leno the same question about his cars and, if he doesn't say "f-off", you'll probably get the same answer. Jay Leno likes his cars, can afford them and they provide him entertainment and challenge for that time of his life which he probably believes, he deserves. I like to buy guns.
