Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the state finance law, in relation to prohibiting the use of state funds for non-residents seeking an abortion or related procedures
AI Summary
This bill amends the state finance law to prohibit the use of state funds to pay for or reimburse abortion services for non-residents. Specifically, the bill prevents the state comptroller and state departments or agencies from certifying payments or making payments to any non-resident for an abortion or any procedure that intentionally terminates a pregnancy at any stage of gestation. The legislation defines a "related procedure" as any medical intervention that results in the termination of a pregnancy, regardless of how far along the pregnancy is. By targeting non-residents, the bill appears designed to limit out-of-state individuals from accessing abortion services using New York state funds. The bill would take effect immediately upon enactment, meaning the funding restrictions would be implemented right away.
