Conn. lawmakers pass bill to be ‘place of refuge’ for abortion patients
Washington PostAPR 2022
This is an attempt to give refuge to abortionists who break the law in their own state. This could bring legal challenges in the future as it effectively allows Connecticut to bypass the legislations of another state.
This is a justified response to the draconian abortion bans that are intensifying across the nation. It is a novel approach that protects abortion rights and keeps bans within state borders.
