Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

I would be remiss not to strongly object to any effort to loosen or over rule the standards set in place to control the safety of clinics that provide abortions. The notion that this somehow limits a womans right to "choice" is ludicrous. As regards the protection of women and their right to rule their own bodies, the support of that right must be insured by the highest standards of safety and protection for them in exercising their right. Changing or loosening the standards that protect women is a bad idea. Duke Bendix
