New Jersey governor signs bills protecting out-of-state abortion seekers and reproductive health care providers
CNN
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Friday signed two bills into law that protect out-of-state residents seeking reproductive services and reproductive health care providers.
The bills, A3974 and A3975, shield health care providers from other state's inquiries and prohibit the extradition of any person who comes to New Jersey seeking legal abortion services. The measures will "explicitly protect the rights of out of state women to an abortion in New Jersey," Murphy, a Democrat, said at a news conference on Friday.
"To those states who are outright hostile toward a woman's right to an abortion, and who'll attempt to use the SCOTUS' egregious ruling to prosecute a woman for having the audacity to practice autonomy over her body, we say, 'No way,' " the governor said.
