Present Virginia law allows
sterilization only for medical
necessity - disease or certain
types of mental illness.
Sponsors of the new mea
sure said physicians should
have legal protection to steri
lize patients who wish to cease
having children. The new law
exempts physicians from civil
suit as the result of a volun
tary sterilization.
Several physicians testified
at public hearings in the legis
lature that they had sterilized
many women who wished to
cease bearing children. One
physician said one of every 27
women who gave birth in his
hospital later asked to be steri
lized. Chief opposition to the meas
ure came from Roman Cathol
ic organizations which con
tended the proposal violated
natural law against mutila
tion. State Sen. John A. K. Don
ovan, attacking the bill on the
senate floor, said Virginia
would become the first state
to permit sterilization without
cause.
