VA: Abortion facilites must be regulated : Abortion industry $$ objects

Virginia, Attorney General Ken Cuccinell has issued an opinion that abortion facilities should be regulated reports the Washington Post.
"The state has long regulated outpatient surgical facilities and personnel to ensure a certain level of protection for patients,'' he said. "There is no reason to hold facilities providing abortion services to any lesser standard for their patients. Even pharmacies, funeral homes, and veterinary clinics are regulated by the state."

"Abortion providers fear that clinics won't be able to afford the costs of making the changes and will shut down or increase their prices. Keene said if the Board of Health imposes the restrictions, 17 of the 21 abortion providers in the state would most likely have to close their doors."
Good for Va, TN needs to follow suit. Just imagine that in VA 17 out of 21 providers would not meet the standards that even vet offices must meet. The abortion industry $$ cares about the safety and health of women....NOT.  They should welcome this instead of fighting it. This tells a lot about them, doesn't it?
In TN, when they try to get the abortion facilities regulated, the ACLU goes to court to help them fight against it  and to date they have been successful.  You would be safer in the vets office.
