The current onerous regulations are not based on science or to protect the well being of women's health. I have attended every hearing on these regulations. The supporters of the regulations cited the bible time after time as a reason for the regulations. It is the Board of Health's duty to make decisions based on science and not religion. Virginia's constitution has the strongest separation of church and state in the nation. Please recommend to the General Assembly to remove these onerous regulations so women can have access to the health care they need.
