Summary

California lawmakers are introducing new bills to strengthen abortion access in response to potential nationwide restrictions under Donald Trump’s presidency.

The proposals include expanding emergency abortion care, increasing access to birth control for Medi-Cal recipients, and improving licensing for alternative birthing centers.

With abortion rights enshrined in California’s constitution since 2022, the state aims to remain a sanctuary for reproductive care.
