Board of Health,
When I read the words "Board of Health", it is my expectation that this body is in place to address the QUALITY of health care provided to women in the commonwealth of Virginia. No other agenda items should supersede this expectation.Assuming you agree with this expectation, it should be obvious to you that the women of Virginia need the protection of the current abortion center regulations. I base that position on the fact that the Department of Health inspections have exposed multiple and gross health and safety violations at the various abortion centers.Quite frankly, it is beyond my comprehension that the Board would even consider relaxing the regulations in light of these violations that so negatively impact a womans health. P-L-E-A-S-E, view your role as an advocate for women, and not as a political pawn for others who do not consider womens health as their top priority. William Kahl
