Oppose regulations
 

I oppose regulations that would require surgial style construction of abortion facilites.  The aim of this legislation is to put abortion providers out of business making it more difficult for women to procure a legal abortion.  Instead of providing safety, it will drive women to desparate measures.  These difficult decisions should be made by a woman and her healthcare provider.  The opponents of abortion try every available avenue to prevent women from receiving this legal procedure.  Please support a woman's autonomy concerning her body and her life decisions.
