Northam on Late-Term-Abortion Remarks: ‘I Don’t Have Any Regrets’

Virginia governor Ralph Northam on Thursday stood by his prior defense of late-term-abortion legislation pending in the Virginia state legislature, telling reporters that he doesn’t regret the comments. Asked Wednesday about Democratic Virginia delegate Kathy Tran’s admission that her bill would allow for abortions to be performed up until the point of birth, Northam defended the legislation and suggested that women should be able to determine whether their born-alive infant should receive life-saving care. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother,” Northam said during an interview on WTOP radio.
