New York governor signs legislative package aimed at protecting patients and abortion providers from out-of-state legal action

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a slate of bills on Monday that aim to protect out-of-state patients and abortion providers from legal action in other states.
The Democratic-sponsored bills are designed to make the state a haven for abortion seekers and providers, as conservative states seek to curtail abortion rights through restrictive legislation or bans, with the Supreme Court expected to overturn Roe v. Wade this month.
Speaking from The Great Hall at Cooper Union in New York City, Hochul said the laws would protect against what she described as the "persistent assault on women's rights and a women's right to determine and make her own decisions about her own body."
