Regulations regarding Women's Health Centers
 

Once again, it is time to support a woman's right to have control over her body and the government

needs to keep out of the VERY PRIVATE life of women citizens.  This outrageous ploy to ultimately

ban abortions by instituting unnecessary regulations at facilities needs to be stopped.   As a member

of Planned Parenthood and a supporter of a woman's right to choose, I ask the health department

to not institute proposed regulations.  Are we going back to the time of back alley abortions for those

who cannot afford to travel to a destination that allows legal abortions?   I had an aboartion many

many years ago and had no physical or mental trauma. Incidentally I had to travel to Switzerland

because they were not allowed in this country.   Only wanted children need to be brought into this world.
