Newsom wants to strengthen Cali’s ‘abortion infrastructure’- wants surge in out of state patients. Huh?

(Sacramento, CA) — California is making plans to be the nation’s abortion provider. Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom has asked a group of reproductive health experts to devise policies to strengthen the state’s abortion infrastructure. This decision comes after a new Texas law that bans nearly all abortions after six weeks of pregnancy. California expects a surge in out-of-state patients, especially if the U.S. Supreme Court guts abortion rights nationally. Lawmakers plan to begin debating the ideas when they reconvene in January.
