“Pro-life physicians, pharmacists and their supporters gathered Wednesday with Gov. Brownback for the ceremonial signing of the new Healthcare Rights of Conscience law, a top priority for Kansans for Life.”

“The Healthcare Rights of Conscience law, which will go into effect July 1, updates 40-year-old state statutes, which clearly covered hospitals and staff opposed to abortion.”

“The new law will protect individual medical practitioners from job loss and medical facilities from lawsuits when they absent themselves from abortion involvement and referrals. This protection also would extend to involvement with drugs and devices “reasonably believed” to cause abortion.”
