ABORTION MUST REMAIN SAFE & ACCESSIBLE
 

 

Abortion must remain a SAFE and ACCESSIBLE choice for women! However, TRAP continues its snowballing of cold and calculated legal maneuvers to limit access to qualified abortion providers. I am mortified that Kavanaugh will have any say in women’s rights. He will no doubt steer the reversal of Roe v. Wade, which is a cornerstone of the most basic of women’s rights: the right to make decisions regarding our own health.

In the meantime, if we allow it, TRAP will continue on its destructive path passing state laws that will ultimately label women as criminals as we die from forms of abortion prevalent in the years prior to 1973’s ruling in Roe v. Wade.

This makes my heart sick!
