New Mexico: reproductive and gender-affirming health care provider protections
Date postedMarch 22, 2023
Legislation passed in New Mexico and awaiting the governor's signature would offer protections to reproductive health care workers.
"The Reproductive and Gender-Affirming Health Care Protection Act protects providers and patients from other states’ efforts to subpoena for provider or patient information as part of an investigation into reproductive or gender-affirming care where that activity is not protected. The bill seeks to protect reproductive and gender-affirming care patients and providers from civil or criminal liability and to protect reproductive healthcare providers from discrimination by professional licensing boards."
