Massachusetts Expands Abortion Access | Boston News

Massachusetts just passed a bold new law removing abortion restrictions after 24 weeks, letting doctors make decisions based on medical judgment—not rigid criteria—effective in 90 days. With Roe overturned and one in three U.S. women living in states with bans, Governor Healey framed this as vital protection for reproductive rights. While supporters praise it for empowering physicians and keeping patients local, critics call it extreme and dangerous, fearing it undermines protections for unborn children. The law responds to rising late-term abortions—both locally and from out-of-state patients using telehealth—and reaffirms that healthcare belongs between patient and provider, not politicians.
