Virginia’s capital, Richmond, has just approved to give Planned Parenthood a $1.2 million property for an abortion clinic for just $10.
This sale does not only seem unjust, it’s also unlawful. The city council did not follow the proper procedures from the Richmond City Code, Section 8-58, as reported by The Daily Wire. That statute states that the council must first vote to declare the property in question “surplus” and then entertain competing bids. However, the council did neither of those things, and the sale is therefore illicit.
Only 10 citizens advocated for the sale at Monday’s council meeting, while 40 opposed it. But, the council proceeded with the sale regardless.

Among the opposition was Josh Hetzler, representing the Founding Freedoms Law Center. Hetzler, who spoke at the meeting, objected to the legality of the sale.
“You will likely be sued over this,” he warned the council. “Save the city the expense and time and embarrassment, and go through the process as you should by law.”
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like the Richmond council is listening to their own constituents or legislation. They have created this ridiculous deal to give away government property – in other words, taxpayer funded land, for $10 for no other reason besides pushing the leftist pro-choice agenda.
