The House 138-9, Senate 38-0, approved a bill that would eliminate old state laws restricting or banning abortion and contraception.
The laws repealed include the ban on unmarried people accessing abortion and contraception; the ban on distributing information on how to procure contraception or abortion care; a law which punishes doctors, pharmacists and all healthcare providers for distributing contraception or providing abortion care; and a ban on adultery and fornication.
