End TRAP regulations
 

It is unconstitutional for you to restrict women’s access to legal abortion  by implementing unnecessary regulationes on abortion providers.  These TRAP regulations are based on ideological desires to control the lives of women and not on best practices in the provision of health care to women.  Will the fight for women to have control over their own bodies never end?  I have been engaged in this battle my entire adult life. I believe women are valuable and deserve to be respected enough to control their own reproductive lives and not have it controlled by people they don’t even know.
