I am appalled at the attack on poor women under the guise of protecting them. The regulations on reproductive health clinics will increase the financial hurdles to health care for patients, with no proven medical benefit to patients. Women need more access to affordable, high quality health care, not less.
The proper way to reduce abortions is to reduce the need. That means better access to birth control and better/sooner education. Most of what the state is allowed to teach in schools is too little, too late.
