Protect Virginia's Women
 

Please ensure that abortion clinics, where some of Virginia's most vulnerable women can be found, meet strict health and safety regulations.  As the recent closure of the Fairfax abortion facility proves, these regulations protect women from unhealthy and sometimes dangerous environments.

All medical facilities should be subject to the most rigorous safety standards.  Why would abortion facilities ever be excluded  from this common sense practice?
