A political trap for women
I am writing to you in order to call attention to an all-out assault that has been launched against women's reproductive health in our state. The Virginia General Assembly targeted women's reproductive health and rights when it passed legislation requiring new regulations for health centers that provide abortions. Although the recent legislation calls for "emergency" regulations because of risks to women's health, this is nothing more than a politically charged attempt to make abortions unavailable to women in Virginia.
