Jessica Rosales recalls plunging into a downward spiral after discovering that her birth control had failed and she was pregnant. A financially unstable third-year student at UC Riverside, she immediately sought an abortion — something the campus student health clinic did not provide.
Instead she was referred to private medical facilities off campus. One wouldn’t accept her insurance; the other didn’t provide abortions. Her grades slipped, she said, and she frequently slept the days away to escape her circumstances. Eventually she traveled six miles to a Planned Parenthood clinic that performed the procedure. Ten weeks had passed.
“My situation could have been avoided if the student health center was there and provided medication abortion for students on campus,” Rosales said.
A bill advancing in the Legislature would make California the first in the nation to require that abortion pills be available at on-campus health centers. The legislation, which has passed the Senate and is advancing in the Assembly, would mandate that all California State University and University of California campuses make the prescription abortion drug RU 486 available at their on-campus student health centers by Jan. 1, 2022.

Maybe next time she should spend less time sleeping around and spend more time on her studies.
Oh no, she would had had to take a bus to kill her baby!
Liberal believe in social welfare cradle to grave. They just make it really hard to get to the cradle.
Another Awesome First for the Golden State!
IOW taxpayers.
Will Catholic colleges fight this?
Sadly I think the odds are around 50-50.
“Oral contraceptives that can be used for emergency contraception in the United States”

I’m not an expert in such things.
Consult a qualified doctor in case of medical need.
They don’t want abortion to be available. They want to PROMOTE it! It is their sacrament. Every time a woman kills her baby her hatred of the “Patriarchy” is affirmed, and she declares her break from Christianity and human nature.
She had to travel six whole miles, and this is considered a hardship????? Really?????
Did she get any emotional support from her boyfriend? There is a man involved isn’t there? The story didn’t mention one.

“Surgical Abortion (5 to 14 Weeks Gestation)”
“most often performed under general anesthesia”
“Patients who choose this method must also remember to have a responsible friend or family member come with them to drive them home after the procedure.”

This is the Planned Parenthood site:
“In-clinic abortions are available by appointment only.”
And learn that their are effective contraceptives to prevent pregnancies.
“there are effective contraceptives to prevent pregnancies”
There’s an average failure rate of about 5% annually.
That’s mainly because lots of women don’t always take their pills on schedule. If they took them on schedule it would be under 1%.
Young men should be aware of that real world 5% failure rate.
Too bad Jerry Brown’s mother didn’t get a free abortion pill. Could have saved the State of CA billions, IMO.
the once-great (”Golden”) state of Californication...
has been reduced to crap.
forget about it.
I can walk 6 miles and now there is this app called Uber. She just doesn’t want to pay for anything. I’m wondering how her tuition is paid.
So California is participating in Legal mass murder?
How will they fit the 50+ pages of instructions and disclaimers in the vending machine?
