Board of Health crack down on abortion providers
 

Virginia shouold not have unnecessary regulations designed to deprive women of abortion services when needed.

It is immoral and inhumane to make access to abortion ever more difficult for those least able to afford unwanted children and least able to to afford to travel to safe abortiopn providers.

The use of health regulations to limit access to abortion is cynical policy responding to the narrow religious beliefs of a minority of our citizens. No religion should be able to force its beliefs on others.

Jefferson would have been the first to point out the immorality of this overlap of church and state.
