End TRAP and adopt medically-appropriate regulations
 

I commend the Board of Health's decision to move forward with a NOIRA and encourage your adoption of medically-appropriate amendments.

The Board of Health must rewrite the current regulations of women’s health centers to focus on preserving access to quality care and ensuring they are based in medicine and science. Current regulations of Virginia women’s health centers are about politics, not medicine. Doctors, health care professionals, and a majority of Virginians oppose these regulations.
