‘A SAFE HARBOR’
Gov. Ned Lamont, above, receives a pen from Lt. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz and signs into law Connecticut’s new abortion bill Tuesday, protecting both medical providers and out-of-state patients who receive abortions in Connecticut from lawsuits. The law also expands who is able to provide abortion care in the state. Bysiewicz, at left, speaking at the signing ceremony for the first-in-the-nation law, says Connecticut is “a safe harbor” for women in states where abortion is limited or outlawed.
