No to TRAP regulations
 

These TRAP regulations are wrong and must be stopped.  Everyone knows they have nothing to do with protecting women's health and are just a backhanded, shameful attempt to close clinics that provide abortion and other reproductive services.  These regulations would force women to travel long distances or use wire hangars or pursue back alley abortions, even though abortion is a legal right in this country.  And that is as far as you can go from "protecting women's health" or whatever lie anti-abortion people use to justify this travesty.
