I very wise and dedicated young woman once said to me "A woman's body should not be used as a political tool." That woman is my daughter, Emily Creveling, and she works in a very professionally run healthcare clinic for women in Falls Church, VA (Falls Church Healthcare Center) as a Health Educator. I have toured this clinic and know that every patient is treated with compassion and love. These needless regulations would seriously limit the help each woman receives and could ultimately close clinics like this one dedicated to helping all women find affordable, quality healthcare. How can this be??
Politics are indeed at the center of these regulations. Why??? Simply because a clinic provides abortions. These clinics also provide other heathcare services women need. These regulations would hurt low-income women without access to quality healthcare not help them.
Please trust that women are capable of making decisions regarding their own healthcare and STOP trying to impose unjust government regulations on the very clinics that respect and care about women!!
