Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

I respectfully urge you to not to weaken any aspect of the current law protecting the health of women at the "health" (abortion) clinics. I wish they would not go to them, but if they do, they should not be subjected to unsanitary conditions. The facilities these clinics are housed in should be subjected to the types of building codes that would facilitate emergency crews the access needed. And finally, the staff needs to met training standards set by an appropriate governing body, not by the hugely profitable company that owns the business. Rodney Dowty
