Increase in Regulation of Women's Health Clinics
 

Increasing the regulation of Women's Health Clinics in Virginia will make it harder for women and couples to access critical reproductive health care education and services, including life-saving cancer screenings, family planning, STI testing and treatment, and continued safe, legal abortion care.
Please limit the imposition of impractical, unnecessary "upgrades" to women's clinics, which are a key component of many communities' medical facilities.
Thank you,
