Summary

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a law shielding doctors who prescribe abortion pills by allowing them to list healthcare practices instead of personal names on medication labels.

The move follows Louisiana’s indictment of Dr. Margaret Carpenter for prescribing abortion pills to a minor, marking a rare post-Roe criminal case.

Louisiana officials issued a nationwide arrest warrant, but Hochul refused to extradite Carpenter. Louisiana’s strict abortion laws impose severe penalties.

Hochul also plans further legislation requiring pharmacists to comply with doctors’ anonymity requests.

The Spanish Inquisition jokes will cease to ring mirth as christofacism tightens it's noose. Once they run some cases through the kangaroo supreme Court and establish nationwide bans they'll then use military and police force even in blue states. They will not stop. They can only be met with force.
