Concerning access at public postsecondary educational institutions to medication abortion.
Public hearing in the Senate Committee on Ways & Means at 4:00 PM.
Summary
The bill orders every public higher‑education institution in Washington to have its student health center offer medication abortion services—or to arrange telehealth with a qualified provider—by the start of the 2027‑28 academic year. Schools without a health center must give students referrals, training, private space, technical help, and devices to access telehealth abortions. Campuses must also maintain a public webpage with clear reproductive‑health information and links to academic‑accommodation resources.
