Why the model tagged it this way: The bill primarily expands abortion access by repealing the 6-week ban in favor of a third-trimester limit with broader exceptions, removing telehealth and mailing restrictions on medication abortion, and repealing the state-funds travel ban. It expands transgender healthcare access by repealing bans and liability provisions on gender-affirming care (including for minors) and mandating Medicaid coverage without discrimination. It also restricts immigration enforcement by repealing hospital immigration-status data collection. No provisions address firearms.
