First and foremost, abortion is the greatest injustice of our day and it is tragic - it does not solve any problems. Abortion ends human life and wounds mothers and fathers. Never is this good. Please God, may we soon see the day when abortion is unthinkable.
Unfortunately, though, abortion centers exist in this Commonwealth of Virginia. If these centers exist, regulations at these centers are essential for the health and safety of Virginia women and must be maintained and enforced, not weakened. The abortion industry has fought regulation for years, yet repeatedly independent inspectors find serious deficiencies, even during announced inspections. Abortion centers are not able to self-regulate. Furthermore, since abortion operates under the guise of "healthcare," abortion centers must adhere to the regulatory standards of other healthcare facilities. Simply, Virginia women deserve nothing less.
Please ensure the health and safety of women by maintaining and enforcing regulations at these abortion centers.
Thank you for your consideration!
