Hochul Vows More Abortion Rights for Residents, Vistors and Students

New York Governor Kathy Hochul said she plans to propose legislation that would protect the privacy of people who seek abortion care, regardless of whether they live in the state.

The Democratic governor used her State of the State address Tuesday to reiterate her commitment to protecting reproductive rights, saying that “as other states continue to slide backwards when it comes to basic and fundamental rights, we will protect and enshrine those rights here in New York.”
