New York’s abortion law has not met constitutional standards for
more than four decades.
Unless it's immediately life-saving, getting an abortion after 24
weeks is a criminal act under New York law — even when it's
necessary for a woman's health or when a fetus is not viable. That not
only falls short of what Roe v. Wade requires, but it results in
devastating denials of care. Women must travel out of state for care
or wait until their health deteriorates during pregnancy to the point
that their lives are in jeopardy.
With reproductive rights under attack at the federal level, New York
must act. The Trump administration seeks to overturn Roe v. Wade and
repeal regulations under the Affordable Care Act that mandate coverage
of contraception without a co-payment.
New York must pass the Reproductive Health Act and the Comprehensive
Contraceptive Coverage Act. Our state should bring abortion out of the
criminal code and put it in the public health law where it belongs,
and should require that insurers offer contraceptive coverage without
co-payment to all New Yorkers.
Demand state leaders pass the Reproductive Health Act and
Comprehensive Contraceptive Coverage Act!
