May 2022: Earle-Sears Blamed School Shootings On “Ills” That Were “Plaguing The Nation,” Such As Abortion Practices, Taking “Prayer Out Of Schools,” And Sexual Liberation. According to the Washington Post, “Earle-Sears, who has operated a prison ministry and often speaks in the tones of a preacher, warned that ‘America is running headlong into a dangerous abyss.’ She claimed that demonstrators are disrupting church services and babies are being aborted up until the moment of birth. Even language has deteriorated, she said, ‘such that F-bombs and even the startling MF bombs are spoken across our airways.’ These and other ills are plaguing the nation, she said, ‘Because we took prayer out of schools. We have so liberated our sexuality, that we are now informed that men can have abortions.’” [Washington Post, 5/27/22]

According to Virginia Mercury, “Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears is scheduled to be the keynote speaker on Friday for a women’s luncheon at the National Rifle Association’s annual conference in Houston, just days after a deadly mass shooting at a Texas elementary school and another at a Buffalo grocery store pushed guns to the forefront of American politics. Tickets to the event with Earle-Sears, who famously posed with a military-style rifle during her 2021 campaign, range from $250 to $2,500, according to the NRA’s website. ‘Be part of this unforgettable gathering of like-minded

women as we celebrate the sisterhood we share, hear from impactful speakers, participate in live and silent auctions, and raise funds essential to strengthening the NRA’s fight to protect our freedom,’ the NRA’s Women’s Leadership Forum says on a website promoting the event. On Wednesday, the Democratic Party of Virginia called on Earle-Sears to withdraw from the event in light of the shooting at Uvalde’s Robb Elementary School that left at least 19 children and two adults dead.” [Virginia Mercury, 5/25/22]

2022: In A March For Life Speech, Earle-Sears Said “Abortion Is Wicked” And Claimed That The Public Support For Abortion Access Would Fall If Only Black Women Could Get Abortions

2022: In A March For Life Speech, Earle-Sears Said “Abortion Is Wicked” And Claimed That The Public Support For Abortion Access Would Fall If Only Black Women Could Get Abortions. According to WRIC ABC 8News, “Sears, who previously stated that she would support ‘heartbeat’ abortion legislation which would ban the practice as soon as an embryo’s heartbeat can be detected, delivered a speech during the rally. ‘We know abortion is wicked, because if I were to put in a bill today… and the bill says this: abortion is only allowed in Virginia if you are a Black woman. Think about that, only Black women in Virginia could get an abortion, no one else,’ said Sears during her speech. ‘You know what we would say to ourselves? ‘Wait a minute, why are they trying to kill all the Black babies?’ You see, then it comes home to us that abortion is wicked.’” [WRIC ABC 8News, 6/26/22]
