Support strong abortion clinic regulation
 

I strongly support the strongest possible regulation of abortion clinics.  It is ironic that the original argument for legalizing abortion was to make it as safe as possible.  Ever since, abortion clinics seem to have opposed any regulation that would have helped insure the safety of those who go there for abortions.  Since it is a surgical procedure, why should these clinics not be subject to the same regulatory regime that hospital outpatient surgery centers face.
