California closer to making colleges offer abortion drugs

[TexasTowelie]

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A measure that would make California the first state to require all public universities to offer abortion medication at their campus health centers cleared a hurdle Wednesday.

None of the 34 University of California or California State University campuses currently offer abortion services. The California Assembly approved the measure, which returns to the Senate for a final sign-off.

Private donors have agreed to pay millions of dollars in startup costs including ultrasound machines, staff training and the creation of a 24-hour hotline for questions and emergency referrals. Universities would be required to offer the service by 2022.

Medication that instigates an abortion can be administered up to 10 weeks into a pregnancy. One medication is administered in the clinic and a patient is given a second drug to take later at home.

1. RETIRED FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA

There are over 100,000 employees associated with this university. The health plan provided for employees to select from are FANTASTIC. I will be VERY happy when this state or country finally provide FREE medical insurance. I know rich people will PAY for better service. We 99% will be so happy with IMPROVED medical insurance...I am glad this possible abortion plan may become possible in the future. There are many students who do not have the time or money to be INSTANT parents.....
