TRAP
 

I am not in support of the State's decision to regulate womens' bodies through the TRAP legislation.  It is very clear, as it does not appear that these constraints are placed on all ambulatory centers throughout the State, that the focus is on limiting the rights of women to access and control over their reproductive rights.  As a consitutent and taxpayer, I urge you all to overturn this ridiculous legislation which is nothing more than a subversive way to limit the rights afforded to all women as a result of Roe v. Wade.  The implications of such unnecessary legislation will be felt by generations and I think it's time for the legacy of opppression that the Commonwealth has in its past to be left there, starting with the elimination of TRAP.  Please do the right thing.  Present and future constituents are watching.
