Alexandria — To the Editor:
And they say there is no war against women! The willingness of Virginia to leave millions of health care funding on the table is one more assault on us.
Most of the 144,000-plus Fairfax residents are poor women and their children. Probably the proportion is the same in Alexandria.
The present state government has repeatedly made it clear that we are as disposable as Kleenex. All women, but especially those who didn't vote in the past, need to go to the polls in November and do a little disposing of our own.
Kudos to [Del.] Scott Surovell for his efforts to protect his constituents.
