Issue Position: Women's Health and Reproductive Rights

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018

New York has not updated its laws on women's reproductive rights since before the US Supreme Court's ruling in Roe v. Wade. This is yet another area where the IDC-GOP collusion in the Senate prevented New York from enacting 21st-century civil rights and public health laws. I support the Reproductive Health Act, to make sure that New Yorkers have protection in case the Trump Supreme Court overturns Roe. I also support the Comprehensive Contraceptive Coverage Act, which expands insurance coverage for all FDA-approved forms of contraception, plus contraception counseling and education.
