California Gov. Gavin Newsom is set to propose new legislation expediting the certification process for Arizona abortion providers to facilitate their practice in California. The bill is a response to Arizona's re-implementation of an 1864 anti-abortion statute, potentially causing individuals to seek abortion services in California.
Newsom emphasized the urgency of expanding access to abortion care, highlighting the need for progress in this area. The proposed bill aims to address the potential challenges faced by abortion seekers from Arizona as well as providers who might face criminal prosecution in Arizona.
