Oppose TRAP regulations
 

TRAP regulations imposed an undue burden on these clinics.  I have read all of the comments on this website and I believe that the religiously motivated and politically inspired comments have no place when it comes to deciding medical care.  Medical care should be based on scientific evidence and not on emotion.  Obstetricians have testified that abortions, the way they have been done before the TRAP regulations, were safe and still are safe.   I urge the Board to follow the Governor's recommendations regarding the regulations.

Thank you all for your service to the Commonwealth
