Respect Women, Require Safety
 

Board of Health,

It is inconceivable to me that in 2015 one must plead with lawmakers to require BASIC health and safety regulations for women at abortion clinics. And it is ironic that the industry that touts "saving women from back-room abortions" does not itself provide BASIC standards of care for its patients. In lieu of these inconsistencies, please mandate health and safety regulations for the abortion industry. They should be regulated as any other healthcare surgical clinic to provide safety for our women. Micki McGuire
