Wade abortion rights decision later this year, in Manhattan in New York, May 5, 2022.
Among the aims of the package of bills, the legislature is trying protect the privacy of providers and patients coming in from out of state and widen the number of providers able to perform the procedure and where the procedure could be performed, Garcia said."While we were being proactive in January when we introduced the bills and we're just letting them go through the regular process, we realized that we missed something in our planning.
The legislature on Friday placed urgency on a bill to protect patients and providers from civil actions and financial retaliation for abortion services that are legal in California. A second bill they are also looking to add urgency to would deny out-of-state subpoenas for patient information regarding reproductive health care granted in California.
