Respect Women, Require Safety
 

Board of Health,

Any other medical facility is bound by regulations, why should abortion clinics be exempt from that" What are they trying to hide that there is such an uproar against having these regulations set in place to ensure the safety of women" What kind of place says they are for the health of women but refuses to take the proper actions that would ensure the safety and health of their clients. The fact that this is even an issue is ridiculous. Abortion clinics should be held to the same standard as other medical facilities and if they are found to not be in compliance with those regulations they should be fined or shut down!
