Hawaii Gov. David Ige signed legislation Monday allowing nurses to perform abortions to compensate for a lack of abortionists on the islands.
“The legislature finds that Hawaii has many qualified licensed health care providers, including advanced practice registered nurses, who can safely and effectively provide abortion care,” reads the bill.
“However, the legislature also finds that Hawaii’s current laws restrict any health care provider other than physicians from providing medication or aspiration abortion care.”
“Consequently, numerous Hawaii residents live on an island without, or with limited access to, an abortion care provider.”
"A shortage of abortionists means the health and economic security of Hawaii’s residents is suffering from “unnecessary travel, long wait times, high costs, and delays to time-sensitive care.”
In 1970, Hawaii became the first state in the nation to legalize abortion-on-demand.
“This act will enable people who desperately need reproductive health care services to receive health care from very high-quality health care providers, including advanced practice registered nurses, where they need it, when they need it,” said Laura Reichardt, the director of the Hawaii State Center for Nursing.
The new law allows advanced practice registered nurses to perform aspiration abortion, which employs a vacuum to suck the fetus out of her mother’s womb through the cervix. An aspiration or suction abortion, a procedure pioneered in China.
The purpose of this Act is “to lift the burdensome and medically unnecessary physician-only restriction on performing certain abortion care procedures to ensure that all people in Hawaii can equally access abortion care, no matter their income or where they live, by authorizing licensed advanced practice registered nurses to perform medication or aspiration abortions,” the new law states.

Why stop at Nurses? How about caregivers? Or the lady at the information desk at the hospital?
As if I needed yet another reason to avoid Hawaii like the plague!
“compensate for a lack of abortionists on the islands”
...yeah. Having a lack of murderers on the islands can be a hinderance.
It's Kill-The-Baby "care". SMH. Sick.
Shame on Hawaii. They've cursed themselves.
Or the janitor, or that Mexican dude trimming the hedges....
They really are insane. Goulish and insane.
Just sleep at a Holiday Inn. You’ll be qualified. /s
They’ll be doing them in nail salons soon
Never should have been a State.
“This act will enable people who desperately need reproductive health care services to receive health care from very high-quality health care providers.”
Make it a territory again. It’s a total anti American sh*t hole full of fidiots as the state is contrary American values. Just think they get two Senate votes and produce complete morons to represent. Obviously we will never take stars off and it’s more likely that cesspool DC and disfunctional PR will be states.
Restore the Hawaiian Monarchy that was illegally overthrown.
Why not let the maintenance guys have a shot, and the cleaning ladies too.
Shame on Hawaii. They’ve cursed themselves.

I thought the same thing.
Imagine the blood thirsty NP/PA eager to kill that baby.
The Good Lord is not pleased.
“The new law allows advanced practice registered nurses to perform aspiration abortion, which employs a vacuum to suck the fetus out of her mother’s womb through the cervix. An aspiration or suction abortion, a procedure pioneered in China.”
By this logic, the guy who runs a car wash could do the procedure, since they usually have high powered vacuums at said establishments.
The evil — it always doubles down. Return Hawaii to being a Kingdom again. With the proviso that all US federal spending to the island stops.
The headline is some misleading. They said nurses...yeah. But APRN's are different than RN's
I work in the Biz...I've known Doctors that were idiots...
I've known PA's and APRN's that were very, very smart.
I work in a very small rural Hosp. now...and most of the time our Provider's are APRN's...but the M.D. is available..Lives in town.
FWIW-
Make it a territory again. It’s a total anti American sh*t hole ...No more so than New York, Massachusetts, or Illinois.
Do we blame the white man or Hawaiians for self-genocide?

There is nothing "reproductive" about killing a baby.
