Trap Restrictions
 

We all know nothing is always 100% safe, but  abortions come close. The restrictions recently placed on providers are medically unnecessary and are geared simply to prevent women from doing what they think best for themselves and their families.

In addition, the clinics do a lot more than just perform terminations. They are the loci of much other necessary health care for women.

I urge you to consider only the evidence based information, to ignore politically motivated misinformation, and to make sure women in the Commonwealth have access to needed medical care.
