Let Doctors Provide Reproductive Health Care Act

This bill would bar any person, business, or state from blocking or limiting health care providers from giving reproductive health care, including abortion, contraception, and IVF, that is legal in the state where the care is given, including care for people from other states. The U.S. Attorney General and affected people or providers could sue in federal court to stop state rules that violate this, and states could not claim immunity. States could not use federal money to bring legal or licensing actions against people for providing care that was legal where it was given. The bill would set aside $40 million for legal help grants to abortion providers and $40 million for security grants for their staff and patients. It would also bar liability insurers from denying coverage to providers solely because they offer legal reproductive health care.
