Regulations on women's health centers
 

Repeal TRAP. These new regulations are medically unnecessary and would restrict or eliminate women's access to other critical health care services such as pregnancy tests, cancer screenings, mamograms and birth control.  They are nothing more than the result of a partisan political agenda and not about women's safety. Where are the statistics demonstrating the need for these changes? How many women have died at these clinics because they couldn't find a parking space or they got stuck in a narrow hallway?  Indeed, how many women have died at these clinics for any reason? This "stunt" was time and VA taxpayer money wasted on a "solution" in search of a problem.
