No to increased clinic regulations
 

It is clear that the proposed regulations are politically-motivated. The regulations will only serve to make it more difficult for health centers to provide high quality health care only make it harder for women and couples to access critical reproductive health care services, including life-saving cancer screenings, family planning, STI testing and treatment, and continued safe, legal abortion care.  Virginians need their voices to be heard on this issue--women should have access to safe abortion care and not have to worry about Virginia politicians inserting themselves in private matters.
