Women's Health Abortion Centers
 

Since abortion clinics are performing critical medical procedures, I believe strongly that these clinics must be subjected to the same health regulations and standards as any surgical center, like a hospital.  They claim to be worried about the health of their patients, so they should be regulated by the most strict standards.  Don't ease up on them because you want to have a place for abortions.  You are taking unnecessary and dangerous actions by lowering the standards.
