TRAP
 

I urge you to reject the onerous TRAP regulations.  These measures do nothing but prevent women from obtaining a Contitutionally protected first trimester abortion and necessary health care.  

The extensive and expensive modification to clinic buildings does nothing to promote the health and safety of women and is merely an excuse to force these necessary clinics to close their doors and put many women in danger.

Women in Virginia deserve the best health care available, not that put forth by narrow minded people who are not doctors and have nothing to do with women's health and safety.

Please use your good judgement and reject TRAP.

Thank you,

Margy Ohring
