Abortion safety
 

Abortion centers must adhere to the regulatory standards of other healthcare facilities to protect the lives of women. Abortion centers are for-profit centers and cannot self regulate. They should be subject to regular, unannounced inspections. Anything less is a disservice to women and their families.
