Repeal TRAP
 

TRAP regulations should be repealed. These regulations restrict access to various types of critical care for Virginia women, particularly women in low-income areas who rely primarily on the services and facilities regulated. These regulations are based on politics that deny a woman and her family the right to make personal decisions regarding abortions. They are not based on medical evidence.
