A letter from Arlington Bishop Michael Burbidge and Richmond Bishop Barry Knestout said the amendment would 'allow virtually unlimited abortion at any stage of pregnancy.'
The plan has proved contentious — in part because of fears of decreased property values and increased crime around the casino — and a vote is not expected to happen until 2025 if at all.
The bill, which is now law, repeals a Virginia law mandating that only doctors can perform abortions, allowing other medical professionals, such as physicians assistants and nurse practictioners, to perform them.
