No on TRAP laws
 

TRAP laws are a transparent attempt to curtail women's right to determine their own medical care.  Colonoscopies have a higher rate of complications than abortions, but are not subject to TRAP style regulations.  Imposing onerous and unnecessary regulations such as TRAP laws are detrimental to women's health, and are unacceptable.
