Respect Women, Require Safety
 

Board of Health,

Please respect the safety of women who visit abortion centers. In the last couple of years many, much needed, new regulations have been put in place to protect the women visiting abortion centers. There have been on average, 22 violations per center reported in this last year. Surely that shows a need to continue these regulations and, in fact, look for other ways to improve the health and safety of women. Please continue to look for ways to protect women and retain the regulations in place. Connie Buttimer
