Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

These standards PROTECT WOMEN! Anyone opposed to these standards is more interested in protecting abortion profits than they are about protecting women or rights. This is what was found when reviewing conditions and practices of supposedly "legal" abortion businesses:"Blood splattered exam tables and equipment, unsterilized equipment, poorly or untrained staff, violations of state parental consent laws, the lack of reporting of possible cases of child sexual abuse, along with over 300 other violations through Department of Health inspections."Women deserve better and there is NO EXCUSE for the repeal of common sense protections for women... other than, of course protecting profits.
