New York state moved to increase protections for abortion providers who mail pills out of state, days after a Louisiana grand jury indicted a New York doctor for allegedly doing just that.
New York’s Democratic governor, Kathy Hochul, on Monday signed into law a bill that permits doctors to request that their names be left off prescriptions for abortion pills. Instead, they can use the names of their medical practices.
“In deeply conservative states, they’ve weaponized the courts against providers, in state and out,” Hochul said in a press conference. She continued: “Other states, they want to target, harass, scare, intimidate doctors and patients. That may be OK in a place like Louisiana, maybe Indiana. But those are not our values in the state of New York. No.”
