Center for Reproductive Rights Deeply Saddened by Murder of Dr. George Tiller
Date:5/31/2009

utation, and profession. He must endure the constant stress of harassment and intimidation, the fear of greater violence, and the burden of substantial expenses in security measures and legal fees. Other physicians in Dr. Tiller's position have been forced to abandon their abortion practices out of sheer stress and exhaustion or out of necessity to protect themselves and their families.

Quite simply, without Dr. Tiller women would lose access to a vital reproductive health service. The words of one of Dr. Tiller's patients, Sarah Coe, are instructive. Sarah obtained an abortion from Dr. Tiller after her fetus was diagnosed with severe hydrocephaly in her 22nd week of gestation, a condition denying oxygen to the brain that would certainly lead to fetal death during pregnancy or birth. Sarah was unable to find a physician near her home who would perform an abortion and was directed to WHCS. In acknowledging her gratitude to Dr. Tiller, she also stated, "It scares me. If something happens to Dr. Tiller, where would women turn?"

Thank you for considering this nomination. We are happy to provide you with additional information upon request.

Sincerely,

Katrina Anderson

Human Rights Attorney
