Listen carefully pro-choice folks. If abortion is going to remain legal, I want abortion facilities held to the same standards as other outpatient surgical facilities.

Abortion Center in Ohio Forced to Close After Numerous Health Violations

State officials forced an abortion business in Cleveland to close after inspectors found numerous health and safety violations. They found more than a dozen problems at the Center for Women’s Health on the city’s east side, which prompted officials to reject the center’s request for a new state license.

In June, the Ohio Department of Health said CWH did not have a local transfer agreement that would allow it to bring women to a local hospital in cases of botched abortions and other medical emergencies.

If you want abortion to be “safe and legal” you should want the same thing. If you want women to have access to abortion everywhere, then you should want abortion facilities to be clean and run by reputable doctors with hospital privileges at the nearest hospital.
