The latest from Lillian

“Let’s face it- we are the only southern state left with access to legal and safe abortion, and that is at stake this November. I am so excited to be endorsed by @RoeYourVoteVA because our district could determine the fate of young folks far beyond our Commonwealth.”

“Every time another state bans abortion, November's race becomes more important. Roanoke's Planned Parenthood is caring for patients who travel from as far away as Mississippi. Nov. 7th will determine the fate of millions of women. We can't go backward.”
