tax payers should not be paying for what is essentially an elective procedure. Abortion is not healthcare unless the life of the expectant mother is in jeopardy.

This was forced by the Salem socialists. The only Commissioner I would never vote for is Chang, he likes Tax Payers paying for irresponsible behavior and would like to have more Commissioners on the board that believe in the socialist democrat agenda.

They already covered abortions in situations of rape, incest, or for medical reasons. Now, they're required to cover abortions when it's simply a want and not a need. If it's not medically necessary (or in the case of rape or incest) then it shouldn't be covered by medical insurance.

They have access to other birth control methods. Use them.

It is a personal responsibility if you get pregnant so it is also your responsibilty if you choose abortion which means you pay ...not taxpayers !

Abortion shouldn't be taken lightly and used as a form of birth control, especially with taxpayer dollars.

Absolutely not. Abortion is not women's health, it is not contraception, it is factually taking a human life period.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
