Stage | Emergency/NOIRA |
Comment Period | Ended on 2/15/2012 |
These regulations are going to wind up putting many health-service providers out of business. Given the economy, shouldn't we be trying to SAVE businesses and jobs? The bottom line is that these regulations are making it more difficult for women to access the health services they need, especially low income women. Does that include abortion? Yes. And regulating abortion differently than other outpatient medical procedures is simply politics at its worst. People can believe whatever they want to believe about abortion, but shouldn't project their personal beliefs on others, especially medical institutions/facilities that are supposed to serve the public. Let these providers do their jobs.
