Onerous Restrictions on Women's Health Care
 

Thank you for voting to amend the medically-unnecessary and highly restrictive regulations for abortion providers in Virginia. It is important that as the Board moves forward, it does so with the intention of keeping trusted women’s health care centers open. It is imperative that affordable access to safe, legal reproductive health care is protected for all Virginia women.  Women's healthcare is a right, and without women's health care centers, many Virginia women would have no access to healthcare.  This is not about politics, but about doing the right thing for all Virginia's women.
