New ads airing in Virginia are highlighting an ongoing child custody battle between a Vermont lesbian and her former partner.

Ads from the Protect Isaballa Coalition, which are hosted online by Liberty University, suggest Virginia’s constitutional ban on same-sex unions is “being violated” by rulings in the custody case.

“Virginia does not recognize homosexual marriages and civil unions — or does it?” says one ad. “Activist judges say Isabella Miller has two mommies. And she must travel between Vermont and Virginia to spend time with both. Our marriage laws are not protecting this child. Virginia’s Constitution is being violated. This is tyranny. Will you help Isabella?”

The campaign revolves around a child custody order that arose out of a Vermont civil union between Janet Jenkins of Fair Haven, Vt., and Lisa Miller of Winchester, Va.
