regulations on abortion centers
 
  • I strongly support the current regulations on abortion centers approved last year. These regulations should be made permanent and should continue to include the strongest standards.
  • I reject the premise that abortion is “health care” because it ends lives instead of healing them, but as long as the abortion industry is allowed to operate within the health care system it must be required to adhere to well-defined health and safety standards.  I was a premature baby and my family fought for my life, because they knew I was a living human being before I was born.  They knew they didn't have to wait for the extra month for me to be 9 months old in order to be considered alive. 
  • Please give this your most thoughtful attention.  Thank you.
