Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

Im a Virginia citizen and a woman and I strongly support these regulations that protect women. While the legalization of abortion is a tragedy, while it remains legal in the United States it is important that womens lives are not put in unnecessary danger. No woman should ever die because of an abortion, and certainly not because of substandard facilities. If abortion is a standard medical procedure, then abortion clinics should be held to standard medical safety regulations. Claire P
