Use evidence for regulations
 

Clinics doing outpatient surgeries are sufficiently regulated at this time.  Abortion is one of the safest procedures provided in the outpatient setting.  The manipulation of regulations for political purposes has no place in medical care.  Medical decisions are the purview of a woman and her medical provider.
