Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., recently signed two bills into California law that protect individuals' abortion data, Health IT Security reports. Bill AB 1242 prohibits state law enforcement entities and corporations from fulfilling search warrant requests from out-of-state law enforcement investigating anyone obtaining a lawful abortion in California. The other bill, AB 2091, bars health care providers from "releasing medical information on an individual seeking abortion care in response to a subpoena or request from out-of-state."
