Board of Health,

Abortion hurts women. Abortion in a dirty, unsafe abortion clinic - 400 VIOLATIONS! - hurts women more. Stop being political and start being responsible. We regulate everything else from restaurants to dog groomers. I know that the abortionists pay politicians to help with campaigns for election to office. I know they want their payback in services like these regulation changes. But you owe the people of Virginia more. Dont roll back these regulations and inspections. Do what is right for women despite your party affiliation and make abortionists clean up their places. You wouldnt go to these places for surgery. To force women in a crisis to deal with these substandard conditions is preying on them for blood money. I want abortion to end; it is a gruesome thing. But while it is allowed to continue, at least safeguard the women who see no other way out of their situation and walk into these clinics. If you dont regulate them, no one else can or will. 400 violations! Wrong. Just wrong. Ann Niermeyer
