In a powerful demonstration of support for reproductive rights, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed new legislation designed to strengthen New York’s position as a sanctuary for reproductive health care in America. The bill, known as S.36A/A.2145A, allows healthcare providers who prescribe medication used for abortions to have the name of their practice appear on prescription labels rather than their own. This measure aims to protect the privacy of medical professionals in an era of increasing hostility toward reproductive healthcare, both from state governments and the federal level.
“Reproductive freedom will always be protected in the State of New York — and I’ll never back down from this fight,” Hochul said in a statement, noting the necessity of this legislation in light of the national climate surrounding reproductive rights. “At a time when fundamental rights are under attack across the country, we are doubling down on our commitment to safeguard access to reproductive health care and defend those on the frontlines of this battle.” This bold move comes at a critical time. Since the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in June 2022, over half of the female population in the U.S. now live in states with significant restrictions on abortion access, as the Associated Press reported.
In stark contrast, New York has committed to providing a safe haven for individuals seeking reproductive care with support from various government leaders, including state Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins.
“This bill is a direct response to the growing attacks on reproductive rights nationwide. While other states escalate efforts to criminalize abortion, New York stands firm. We will not allow anti-abortion extremists to intimidate providers or block access to care,” Stewart-Cousins said in a statement.

“This bold move comes at a critical time.”
LOL...you want “Bold” you turn to Trump, Musk and DOGE.
You’re always down on your back. That’s how you became governor.
Another misuse of the language that leftists use ... reproductive rights.
Show me one instance - ONE - where someone has been denied the right to reproduce. There is none.
"Reproductive rights" is libspeak for abortion i.e. the right to kill what your "reproductive rights" has created, by YOUR decision and YOUR choices.
I’d be ok with cropdusters spraying RU486 over New York. But that’s just me.
Ahem make that NY city, Albany, Westchester, Tompkins, Erie, Monroe, Cayuga counties and you have yourself a deal. The rest of us normals are outvoted.
>>Louisiana went after an abortion doctor in NY who prescribed the “morning after” pill via telemed visit to a Louisianian .
Was the NY abortionist licensed to practice medicine in Louisiana? Telemedicine should not be able to get around licensure.
Because nothing says REPRODUCTION like murdering innocent unborn.
These evil minions don’t even care how sickening their terms and phrases are .... for murdering babies.
So they will put the name of the practice on the bottle, not the doctor. Simple solution. Subpoena the practice for who did the pill-abortion.
>> reproductive rights
guessing she means the Right to Kill
Hochul....We just gotta kill those babies...
I would like to see a real debate between pro-life and abortion supporters. Let each side present their best evidence.
Killing babies is what excites Democrats.
That has got to be an FDA violation. Send in Harry. Bosch.
Reproductive rights being protected?
You have live people walking the streets that want protection.
1 outta 3. Me thinks this broad ain’t reading the room.
She’s one scary looking biznatch.
She’s scared of Ritchie Torres.
Comply hospitals and doctors ... send your invoices to NY Gov Hokum.
"reproductive rights"In other words, killing unborn babies, as a method of "birth control."
One day she’ll stand before Christ and she will back down.
