I'll play along and will email them to let them know when my period starts and stops and the same for my daughter.

I think opponents need to really talk up creepy Youngkin and co wanting detailed info from tween and teen girls about their periods.

They're against "big government" in theory only.


Right? They are just vile POSs who will use any excuse they can to hurt others.

I hate the “moderates” more. Without the diligent spinelessness of “moderate” voters, none of this would be happening.


The Virginia Senate killed the bill, not Youngkin. It didn't even get to his desk, although if it did I am sure he would have vetoed it. But I don't think we have moderates to blame here.

Read the article. They killed it because of Youngkin's team's urging.

I thought Rs were all about privacy and "don't tread on me" while the Dems were about "big government".

I guess that only applies to men and guns. Government has the right to control women's bodies.

Yes, this is on the moderates who bought the CRT BS hook, line and sinker.

Point taken. Although I’m not sure about spineless vs stupidity

https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/02/14/youngkin-menstrual-data-abortion-virginia/
S.B. 852, proposed by Sen. Barbara A. Favola (D-Arlington), would have prohibited search warrants from being issued for menstrual data stored on computers or other electronic devices. The measure sailed out of the Democratic-led Senate last week on a 31-9 vote, with every Democrat and half of the chamber’s 18 Republicans in support.

But a Republican-led House subcommittee voted along party lines Monday to “table” the bill — essentially killing it — after Maggie Cleary, Youngkin’s deputy secretary of public safety and homeland security, detailed the administration’s concerns that the measure could restrict subpoena powers.

“While the administration understands the importance of individuals’ privacy, we do oppose this bill,” she began. “This bill would be the very first of its kind that I’m aware of — in Virginia or anywhere — that would set a limit on what search warrants can do.


So in what cases would the government need a search warrant for health care information? Why can't this exception be stipulated unless you envision a purpose for needing it in the future? Obviously, abortion rights folks are concerned.

There's another bill working it's way through the legislative process that prevents selling that data, but it still leaves it open to subpoena.

The House has yet to act on another Senate bill, brought by Sen. Scott A. Surovell (D-Fairfax), that would prohibit the sale or dissemination of menstrual data to third parties without the consumer’s consent. Surovell said that measure, S.B. 1243, would not prevent disclosure to law enforcement.

Surovell’s bill would prevent the governor from extraditing someone who obtains legal abortion services in Virginia to a state that seeks to prevent its citizens from going out of state for procedures banned at home./QUOTE]

There are over 1000 comments on the wapo article, so clearly a lot of opinions out there.
