In a powerful demonstration of support for reproductive rights, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed new legislation designed to strengthen New York’s position as a sanctuary for reproductive health care in America.
The bill, known as S.36A/A.2145A, allows healthcare providers who prescribe medication used for abortions to have the name of their practice appear on prescription labels rather than their own. This measure aims to protect the privacy of medical professionals in an era of increasing hostility toward reproductive healthcare, both from state governments and the federal level.
