Congressman Dan Goldman Pushes to Codify Protections for Prescribers of Contraception Nationwide

Congressman Dan Goldman joined Congresswoman Lizzie Fletcher (TX-07) in introducing the ‘Right to Contraception Act,’ which would codify the right for individuals to access and use contraception and for healthcare providers to provide it and related services, as well as information related to contraception. The legislation would codify access to a range of contraceptive methods, devices, and medications used to prevent pregnancy, including oral contraceptives, emergency contraceptives, and intrauterine devices (IUDs). 

Congressman Goldman remains committed to defending access to medication abortion. In March 2024, the Congressman introduced the ‘Abortion Care Awareness Act,’ which would increase access to medically accurate information about abortion, specifically medication abortion, and ensure people have access to accurate information about where and how to obtain abortion services across the country, how to avoid anti-abortion centers intended to deceive patients, and how to identify misinformation about abortion care.
