Thank you to Governor Kathy Hochul for signing into law A8168/S7690, sponsored by BPCLC's Assemblymember Amy Paulin & Senator Lea Webb! Thank you to the bill sponsors for carrying this important maternal health legislation!

Thank you to Governor Kathy Hochul for signing into law S3610/A5576, sponsored by BPCLC's Senator Lea Webb & Assemblymember Gina Sillitti! Thank you to the bill sponsors for carrying this important maternal health legislation!

Abortion care is health care, whether it is sought by choice or by medical necessity. It is tragic and an outrage, but no surprise, that abortion bans are causing maternal deaths. Access to abortion care should not be based on where a person lives.
