Right now, the Rhode Island General Assembly is considering a mandatory Waiting Period Bill that would seriously undermine physician autonomy and women's rights.

Furthermore, this bill mandates a 24-hour waiting period before performing an abortion, which will lead to later term, and therefore more dangerous and costly abortions.
