A group of women has formed a new political action committee to recruit and support candidates to defeat elected officials who back the ultrasound and so-called personhood bills.
Womens Strike Force, which boasts several former elected officials, formed after Virginia spent last week in national headlines for its attempt to require women to undergo mandatory trans-vaginal ultrasounds before an abortion.
As a former member of the General Assembly and Virginias first woman in Congress, I fought for womens rights in the 70s, 80s and 90s, Leslie Byrne said in a statement. We must move the commonwealth and the nation forward, not backslide to denying women rights.
