Virginia
Virginia's 2026 ballot includes two constitutional amendments of moral significance. One would establish a fundamental right to reproductive freedom, including abortion, in the state constitution. The other would repeal the state's constitutional definition of marriage as between a man and a woman and replace it with language requiring the state to recognize marriages without regard to sex or gender. The questions raised include the protection of unborn life, the meaning and structure of marriage, and the proper scope of state constitutional protection.

Right to Reproductive Freedom Amendment
A proposed constitutional amendment that would codify abortion as a right in the state, and restrict the state legislature from adding any protections for the unborn in the first two trimesters. If passed, this would erase protections owed to unborn children.
