Top Issues
Virginia’s 2026 elections feature key constitutional questions on major issues—a special April 21 referendum on allowing mid-decade congressional redistricting (often criticized as a partisan gerrymandering move), plus three amendments on the November 3 general election ballot: automatic restoration of voting rights for felons upon release from prison, enshrining a broad "fundamental right to reproductive freedom" for near-unrestricted abortion access, and repealing the outdated ban on same-sex marriage while affirming marriage rights regardless of sex, gender, or race. These measures seek to lock in partisan advantages through rushed redistricting, reduce accountability for felony convictions, eliminate safeguards on abortion (including parental involvement and late-term limits), and permanently codify marriage equality—overriding voter-approved reforms, traditional protections, and future legislative flexibility in our democracy.
Together Against Redistricting
Mid-decade redistricting is a blatant partisan power grab by Democrats to override Virginia's voter-approved independent commission and rig congressional maps for a lopsided advantage before the 2026 midterms. It violates the spirit of fair elections by abandoning the nonpartisan process Virginians endorsed in 2020, replacing stable, community-focused districts with manipulated lines that prioritize party control over representation.
Criminals at the Ballot Box
The felon voting rights amendment is an attempt at automatically restoring rights to criminals upon release, potentially tipping close elections in their favor before the 2026 midterms. It violates the spirit of accountability in our justice system by abandoning the restoration process Virginians have relied on since 1902, replacing careful Governor oversight with a blanket policy that ignores rehabilitation and victim rights.
Protect the Unborn
The Virginia 2026 reproductive freedom amendment would enshrine abortion up until birth as a fundamental constitutional right. This radical change would turn Virginia into one of the most extreme abortion states in the nation while treating the lives of the unborn as secondary to unrestricted access. Virginians should vote NO to keep balance, accountability, and respect for life in our laws.
Protect Traditional Marriage
Voting NO on this amendment preserves Virginia's traditional definition of marriage as between one man and one woman, upholding the foundational values of family, faith, and society that have guided our Commonwealth for generations. By rejecting this repeal, we prevent unnecessary changes that could undermine religious freedoms, parental rights, and the unique role of marriage in fostering stable environments for children, while avoiding a slippery slope toward further redefinitions that ignore biological realities and cultural norms.
