Gov. Jared Polis signed an executive order Wednesday saying Colorado will protect people who seek abortions and those who provide them, including those in or from other states. The order says the state won’t assist in criminal or civil actions in other states aimed at preventing women from getting access to abortion. It also instructs the Department of Regulatory Affairs to protect anyone with a Colorado professional license from discipline for providing or seeking reproductive health care in any state.
I love that blue state governors are stepping up to the plate. That makes it even more important for blue states to make sure they are electing pro-woman candidates at every level of government!
