Pro-choice: wants abortions rare, safe and legal

When it comes to abortion rights, I believe most Oregonians are either pro-choice with certain limitations or pro-life with certain exceptions. I am pro-choice. And while people of conscience will disagree, my experience is that most Oregonians manifest their positions moderately and with thoughtful consideration for other points of view. And while I'm pro-choice, I actually believe in the idea of making abortionÿ"rare,"ÿalong with keeping it safe and legal.

Opposed requiring coverage for all for reproductive health

Legislative Summary: HB3391: Reproductive Health Equity Act: Requires health benefit plan coverage of specified health care services, drugs, devices, products & procedures related to reproductive health. Allows exemption for plans sold to religious employers.

ACLU analysis: Restrictions on reproductive health care can have profoundly harmful effects on our health and well-being, particularly for those who already face significant barriers to accessing high-quality care, such as low-income women. HB3391 ensures that Oregonians, regardless of income, citizenship status, gender identity or type of insurance, have access to the full range of preventive reproductive health services, including family planning, abortion, and postpartum care.

Legislative Outcome:Passed House 33-23-4 on Jul/1/17; State Rep. Knute Buehler voted NO; Passed Senate 17-13-0 on Jul/5/17; Signed by Governor Kate Brown on Aug/15/17
