Protect reproductive health privacy and care

Cantwell supports protecting access to reproductive care, contraception, and the privacy of patients’ personal data. She introduced legislation to protect health information from misuse against patients, and has sought protection from prosecution for providers treating patients who travel from states with abortion bans. She also sought federal action to protect patients and providers regardless of where a patient comes from.

Context: The passage says Republicans blocked the effort to protect providers from prosecution; it does not state the outcome of the privacy legislation.
