Please do not use women's reproductive health as a political football-- thes proposed burdensome restrictions and regulations are medically unnecessary and are obviously meant to close down clinics so as to promote an anti-choice agenda. In the process, many low-income women will be denied much needed health care and have their access restricted to other kinds of necessary reproductive health care. 

It's chilling to me that even as I write this, I feel pretty sure that you will ignore my plea for common sense on this issue in favor of your anti-choice crusade. I am speaking out as a citizen who believes women have a right to health care and safe and legal abortions — even though in this state, my voice seems always to fall on deaf, prejudiced ears and closed minds.
