I strongly support the current regulations on abortion centers approved last year. The current regulations are reasonable, common sense measures which ensure that life-saving equipment is on hand, infections are prevented, and that clear written policies and building guidelines are in place. Abortion is not healthcare, because it ends lives rather than saving them. However, as long as abortion is legal, we should ensure that it is performed in a center which is safe and adheres to accepted health and safety regulations. Please consider making permanent the existing regulations on these centers. Thank you.
