Gavin Newsom signs abortion protection bills, declares California 'reproductive freedom state'
Fox News
California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday signed into law two bills intended to protect the privacy of abortion providers and patients.
California and Texas, the nation's two most populous states, routinely take separate sides on issues like health care and immigration, with Democrat-led California typically taking liberal stands and Republican-led Texas treading a conservative path.
One new California law prohibits the recording or photographing patients or providers within 100 feet of a clinic that provides abortions, while the other calls for a patient's heath information to be kept confidential – even if that patient is not the primary policyholder on their health insurance.
