SAN DIEGO — California will take a national role in abortion access in the event that the landmark ruling Roe v. Wade is overturned, state and local leaders said at a roundtable discussion Thursday.
"As some seek to roll back 50 years of progress, 50 years of settled constitutional case law, we will move forward here in California," Attorney General Rob Bonta said at Skyline Hills Library in San Diego. "We will expand access to health care, we will expand access to abortion, we will meet this moment and we will lead this country as we have done so often."
Bonta said the state is prepared to create a haven for patients traveling to California.
