Enhances access to reproductive health care; appropriates $20 million; repeals various sections of law.
This bill enhances access to reproductive health care in New Jersey by requiring health insurance plans to cover abortion without cost-sharing, establishing a $20 million Reproductive Health Access Fund, and repealing several existing abortion restrictions. The fund will support three specific programs: $5 million for training providers in abortion care, $5 million for security grants to facilities at risk of violence, and $10 million for facility renovations and staff recruitment. The bill also prohibits insurance companies from penalizing providers for offering abortion care and bars out-of-state laws from being used in civil actions against people seeking or providing abortion services. It repeals laws requiring parental notification for minors seeking abortion, restricting Medicaid coverage for abortion, and exempting religious employers from abortion coverage requirements.
