Reject proposal for abortion mills to police themselves
 

 

The suggested amendments would make it easier for the abortion industry to deceive women into believing they've had an abortion when they haven't.  Don't believe that happens?  Guess again.  The Planned Parenthood in Richmond did just that, whether intentionally or simply through neglect.  Under current regulations, the "conception material" obtained from the abortion must be sent to a lab to verify that it is indeed a human being.  The proposed changes would leave it up to the abortion center to make that determination.  

Incredibly, at the abortion center in Fairfax that had its license suspended recently, violations include a lack of training for staff who were assigned to determine if the "material" was indeed a baby.  

Shameful
