Abortion clinic regs
 

The TRAP regs are simply a politically motivated attempt to close women's clinics that provide abortion services.  The politicians must stay out of the exam rooms as they have done for other medical services.  They have chosen to selectively target abortion services.  From my understanding, abortions have been and still are one of the safest office-based procedures.  How did abortions get controlled faster than assault rifles.  I urge the BOHd to formlulate regs that will protect abortions and a woman's right to choose.
