VA Board of Health please amend unnecessary restrictions on women's health centers
 

To the Virginia Board of Health:

Please repeal/amend the unnecssary restrictions that have been placed on Women's Health Centers in Virginia. I support the Board of Health's decision to amend these restrictions because the restrictions were designed and implemented simply to deny access to abortion. All women must have access to safe, legal reproductive health care and the decisions made by these women are between them and their doctors, not any political body. 

Do not let Women's Health Centers in Virginia close based on these arbitrary restrictions. The restrictions do nothing to increase the safety of patients and are simply unnecessary to women's care. Thank you for your consideration. 

Sincerely, 

Kimberly Hensley
