TRAP Laws: NARAL's Tarina Keene on The Authentic Woman with Shannon Fisher

NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia Executive Director Tarina Keene talks to Shannon about the TRAP (Targeted Regulations of Abortion Providers) legislation that has been debated in Virginia for the last four years. The fight against these TRAP laws has been the focus of much media attention, including being featured in the film Political Bodies, which won "Best Documentary" at the Austin Film Festival in 2013. 

Tarina has been mentioned in many national publications and has appeared on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show to discuss the impact on women’s access to reproductive healthcare.  Her interview with Shannon Fisher is a deep look into TRAP Laws and the methods by which they circumvent Roe v. Wade by chipping away at abortion rights with unnecessary and cost-prohibitive regulations. After years of heated debate and political maneuvering, Virginia's women's health centers reached a critical victory at the September 17th Virginia Board of Health meeting.  This podcast details the long and winding road heretofore of Virginia TRAP regulations.

The Authentic Woman with Shannon Fisher explores personal, political, and societal perspectives of the female experience in America. The show delves deeply into the worlds of women writers, artists, celebrities, and community leaders and offers listeners food for thought on ways to better themselves and the world around them.
