Protect Women, Not Abortion Clinics
 

Over 300 demonstrated violations of the current standards show that abortion clinics put profits before women's health and safety. Now mandatory inspections have revealed unsterilized needles, blood-splattered equipment, and violations of Virginia's mandatory child abuse reporting and parental consent laws. Do not let this continue. Prioritize Virginia women over abortion industry profits. Preserve current regulations which require abortion centers to meet the same regulatory standards as other healthcare facilities!
