Contraception; provide right to obtain and engage in.
SB 2364, if passed, would establish a legal right for individuals to obtain contraception (including birth control pills, IUDs, and condoms) and for healthcare providers to offer it. The bill prohibits Mississippi state or local governments from restricting access to FDA-approved contraceptive methods, requiring any such restrictions to be justified by significant safety concerns and proven to be the least restrictive option. It allows individuals, healthcare providers, or the Attorney General to sue if these rights are violated, seeking court orders to stop the restriction. The bill, which died in committee on February 3, 2026, would have taken effect July 1, 2026, but does not affect existing insurance coverage requirements for contraception.
