Uphold Standards, Protect Women
 

Board of Health,

The Commonwealth of Virginia has a legal requirement to protect the health of all of its citizens. That a special portion of that populace should be denied protection is abhorrent. The abortion industry has a long record of unsafe and unhealthy practices, often causing the death of the poor woman who puts herself in their care. We, Virginia, need to hold the abortion industry to at least the same level of oversight as we do dentists. I strongly urge maintaining the current oversight regulations. Dan Reynolds
