MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)   BILL NUMBER: A6221 SPONSOR: Glick (MS)
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the public health law, in relation to reproductive services   PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: Relates to access to reproductive services.   SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Article 41 of the public health law is amended by adding a new title 6-A. § 4166 provides that the state shall not deny a woman's right to obtain an abortion as established by the United States Supreme Court in the decision Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973). § 2. Effective date.   JUSTIFICATION: This bill codifies the alignment of State law with existing federal law. In Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), the United State Supreme Court ruled that the United States Constitution protects a woman's right to have an abortion prior to fetal viability or when necessary to protect the health and life of the woman. Although current State law does not have all of these protections, this has, in fact and in law, been the law in New York for over forty years; this proposal would not change or alter existing State and federal laws that permit a health care provider or institutions from refraining from providing an abortion for religious or moral beliefs. This bill would not expand the class of individuals who could perform abortions, nor would it alter the current long-standing criminal ban on partial birth abortion. The bill simply codifies the reproductive rights that women in New York have had since Roe.   LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: New Bill.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None to the state.   EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect on the thirtieth day after it shall have become law.
