"Virginia Governor Youngkin Signs Abortion Measure, Vetoes Others"

Virginia's Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed 88 bills and vetoed 11, including a measure backed by abortion-rights groups that would have protected women and medical practitioners from potential extraditions related to abortion services. He also vetoed a bill prohibiting state regulators from disciplining doctors for legal abortion care, while surprising some by signing legislation supported by abortion rights groups that protects women's privacy regarding menstrual health data. Youngkin's actions have drawn criticism from Democrats, who accuse him of limiting women's options, and the state remains an outlier in the South for its abortion access.
