Description

Special license plates; TRUST WOMEN/RESPECT CHOICE. Authorizes the issuance of revenue-sharing special license plates bearing the legend: TRUST WOMEN/RESPECT CHOICE. The annual surcharge for these plates would be $25, instead of the standard $10 for most other nonrevenue-sharing special license plates. For each set of plates issued (after the first 1,000 sets), $15 will go to the Virginia League of Planned Parenthood to provide women's health services in Virginia.   View Full Text »

Thank you, Del. Brink!! This bill will help promote comprehensive healthcare for all Virginia women, especially those who lack health insurance.
It will also help Virginia men who lack health insurance, as the Virginia League of Planned Parenthood also serves men in their responsible, loving quest for comprehensive healthcare.

Apparently the Delegate Assembly doesn't trust women enough to decide where to spend their money.

Virginians should be outraged.

Delegate Bob Brink's attempt to use state funds from license plates to pay for abortions should be noted by Arlingtonians in the next election.

I suspect that Delegate Brink hopes very much that his constituents notice his support of Planned Parenthood.

anti choice supporters can't understand that the ability of a WOMAN to terminate a pregnancy because of the health issues she might face (even to the point of it killing her) should be left between her, her family and her doctor. these nice folks seem to think every baby comes out perfectly and every pregnancy is due to the love of the parents... that, my friends, is a denial of reality and a puritanical view of "punishment" for women who like sex...next up homicide investigations for miscarriages?

interesting choice of words.."anti-choice"? What choice does a child have? or the alleged Father?
The "choice" to terminating a life not yet born does not belong SOLELY to the female's body! Government should not attempt to legislate Personal Responsibility! Family issues belong INSIDE THE FAMILY, and whomever THEY choose to have involved. However, when we have a social services SYSTEM that categorically DENIES A MAN'S RIGHTS when a child is conceived, (think child $upport demands, DENIAL of ANY social services for MEN who have children)there's a huge money making racket funding and backing the "choice" movement..and it doesn't benefit both genders EQUALLY, therefore, "choice" doesn't belong ONLY to the woman, and "anti-choice" has NOTHING TO DO WITH 'CHOICE'.

Trusting women has nothing to do with "pro-choice"!
If pro abortionists want a license plate they can earn additional funding off of, call it what it is, Pro-Abortion, Pro-Killit, or something TRUE. Words mean something you know! "Trust" is something a person EARNS. (you know like what the unborn child you created when you had unprotected and irresponsible sex inherently has)?
