Tell Virginia: Respect Choice License Plates Should Respect Choice
The Issue
Update: The funding has been restored to Planned Parenthood! Thanks to everybody who signed the petition and made this a reality. Now we need you to ask the governor to sign the bill to make it a reality.
Over 20 states have "Choose Life" license plates, which fund a variety of anti-choice organizations and crisis pregnancy centers that provide false information.
In Virginia, an alternative "Trust Women/Respect Choice" license plate bill has been proposed to provided funding for comprehensive reproductive health services for Planned Parenthood.
In an anti-choice twist, the House bill has taken the funds from Planned Parenthood and given them to a pregnancy support fund -- which isn't even a legitimate fund, existing only exists on paper.
The House and Senate bils now need to be reconciled, and the major difference is where the money is going.
Tell Virginia legislators to that "Trust Women/Respect Choice" license plates should fund an organization that actually trusts women and respects choice.
