AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would bar any person, group, or state from preventing or restricting health care providers from offering reproductive health care services, such as abortion, contraception, and IVF, that are legal in the state where the care is given, including care for patients who live in other states. The U.S. Attorney General and people harmed by a violation could sue states or officials in federal court, and states could not claim immunity from these lawsuits. The bill would bar states from using federal funds to take legal or licensing action against people for providing reproductive care that is legal where it is given. It would provide $40 million for legal help grants and $40 million for security grants for providers who offer or refer for abortion care. It would also bar liability insurers from denying coverage to providers solely because they offer legal reproductive health care.
