TRAP Laws
 

Across the country TRAP laws are being enacted state by state with the sole intention of shutting down women's clinics.  These clinics provide preventative care and some also provide abortion services.  Preventing access to women's clinics WILL NOT make women safe.  LEGAL abortions will STOP but ILLEGAL ones will continue.  Abortion restrictions make abortion UNSAFE for women.  Reject the medically unnecessary restrictions on Virginia's women's clinics...women's lives are at stake.
