Dear Members of the House Ways and Means Committee, I am a citizen of NH in Loudon, and I want to urge you to vote OTP on HB1338. Abortion providers are not charitable organizations. They provide abortions, which are medical procedures at high cost to the client, usually $800 or more. There are health plans that now cover or partially cover abortions. Money from gaming that is donated to charity should go to real charities such as food banks, organizations that help the homeless and work to end homelessness, and addiction recovery programs. Abortions are medical procedures normally considered by their providers as part of the health care system, not charities! Thank you for your vote, OTP, on HB1338! Sincerely, Donna Peterson
