The emergency regulations on abortion clinics restrict access to necessary, legal medical care. As such, they are unacceptable.  As the Board of Health crafts permanent regulations, please use evidence on medical necessity and safety and not a contentious political agenda as the basis for regulation.  Please consider how regulations affect access to care and the realization of Court-confirmed rights.  Please assess the evidence on the general safety of abortion procedures and bring regulations on abortion clinics in line with those for the provision of other office-based surgical and medical procedures.  My and my daughter's health and dignity--and that of countless other women--depend on it.
