AG Miyares Only Believes in the First Amendment When it Fits His Agenda

“Says Pro-Choice Student Protesters “Don’t Have the Right” to Protest

Wade, Attorney General Jason Miyares said that these protests are “incredibly disruptive” and “don’t have the right” to protest.

“The ease at which Attorney General Miyares abandoned the first amendment is worrisome,“ said DPVA Spokesperson Gianni Snidle. “The Attorney General is supposed to be Virginia’s chief law enforcement officer and took an oath to uphold the constitution. Yesterday he broke that oath. ​One thing is clear to Virginians – Miyares is not fit to serve as the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Virginia.”
