Abortion Industry
 

It is amazing to me that we do not allow hospitals and doctors to oversee their own standards of cleanliness and surgical procedure...yet we think that abortion centers do not need to be held to the same standards.  Regardless of what one believes about the morality of abortions..the medical facts are clear...they are surgeries and medical procedures and as such MUST BE HELD to the same standard of care as any other patient treatment center.

WOMEN DIE and are INJURED from abortions...here in the state of Virginia.....because places that do abortions are NOT held to medical standards.

Please stop touting how much "we care for women's health" if our state gov't is not willing to care for women's health enough to hold clinics and abortionists to the standard of care we expect from any other outpatient clinic or surgical center.
