There should not be any special regulations that apply ONLY to facilities that provide abortions. Everyone's health matters, right- if higher standards are needed for abortion providers, they are also needed for all other medical facilities, and don't forget the "medical spa"-type places too! (The Virginian-Pilot had a big story about them  and their horrors on the front page June 2. Maybe the AG & legislature should take the opportunity to practice medicine, again, on them.)

The point is, facilities where abortions are provided do not require special regulation over and above the requirements of already regulated facilities providing similar and often MORE invasive services.  The new TRAP regulations should not be implemented.  Please do your job and use science and good medical practice to make these decisions, and not the politics of patriarchy.
