Virginia patients shut out as Medicaid cuts hit reproductive care access

“We need to make sure we have leaders in Richmond who will fight for us.”

That was Planned Parenthood of Virginia’s Executive Director Jamie Lockhart’s message during a recent roundtable discussion with Americans for Contraception, advocates, doctors, and community members in Midlothian. As she explained, Medicaid cuts that were included in Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” will lead to undetected cancers, untreated STIs, and difficulty in obtaining birth control, affecting more than 5,700 Virginians.

Elder scams cost Virginians $106M Spanberger calls for action
