After one abortion clinic was closed permanently in June and serious health violations were found in several others, the Alabama Bureau of Health Provider Standards has proposed new regulations governing abortion clinics.
One clinic, New Woman All Women Health Care in Birmingham, agreed to go on probation in November after “inspectors found patients weren’t given preoperative medication on time, the clinic hadn’t verified whether pregnancy tests and ultrasound tests were conducted and, in the most serious violation, the clinic’s administrator had ordered and diverted narcotics such as hydrocodone for her own use,” according to the News.

Planned Parenthood and other pro-choice groups vehemently oppose any regulation of clinics, claiming such regulations would drive abortion clinics out of business. Meanwhile, many abortion clinics are dangerous and have injured and even killed women.
