Tiller Family to Close His Clinic

From the WE Blog (Wichita Eagle):

Today the survivors of George Tiller announced their decision to close his Women’s Health Care Services permanently and not be involved in any similar clinic. That was their decision to make. The impact is profound on Wichita, however. It means that area women will be forced to travel three hours or more to seek abortions. The nearest clinics are in Overland Park. Any woman in a position to seek a late-term abortion will have to travel farther. Unless or until Wichita gains another abortion provider, the decision also will end the community’s run as the epicenter of the abortion fight.

Wichita has a lot of things it can be proud of, like it's aviation industry. Residents will probably feel relief eventually that the nation's abortion fight will be on other turf.
