HR 2907 United States House · 118th Congress

Let Doctors Provide Reproductive Health Care Act

HR 2907, the "Let Doctors Provide Reproductive Health Care Act," prohibits states from restricting or penalizing health care providers (including doctors, nurses, and pharmacists) who offer reproductive health care services - such as abortion, contraception, or in vitro fertilization - that are legal in the state where the care is provided. The bill allows providers, patients, or the federal government to sue states or officials enforcing such restrictions, with courts able to block those laws and award legal fees. It also allocates $40 million for legal defense grants to help providers facing lawsuits and $40 million for security grants to protect clinics and patients. The law directly affects reproductive health care providers, their staff, patients, and insurers, ensuring they cannot be denied services, insurance, or face disciplinary action for providing legally permitted care.
