SACRAMENTO—Gov. Gavin Newsom proposed a $125 million reproductive health package May 11, in an effort to declare California an abortion sanctuary for those living outside the state seeking the procedure.

“California will not stand idly by as extremists roll back our basic constitutional rights; we’re going to fight like hell, making sure that all women—not just those in California—know that this state continues to recognize and protect their fundamental rights,” Newsom said in a statement.
