Requirements for clinic buildings that are unrelated to the services--TRAP
 

No to TRAP.  

The regulations therin will increase the financial hurdles to health care for patients, with no proven medical benefit to patients.  Women need more access to affordable, high quality health care, not less.  Medically safe access to abortion is the socially responsible alternative to the former back-alley methods.
