House Bill 369 “An Act Relating to Health Insurance and Medicaid Coverage for Fertility-Related Services” (2023)
H.369 was read for the first time and referred to the House Health Care Committee on February 24, 2023. It had little movement throughout the 2023 legislative session, but the Committee did hold an initial meeting regarding this bill towards the end of session. For now, it remains "sitting on the wall" for possible continued action in the 2024 session. If passed in 2024, this bill could include the following coverage: Representative Mardi Cordes of Lincoln is the sole sponsor of H.369 (2023). … [Read More...] about House Bill 369 “An Act Relating to Health Insurance and Medicaid Coverage for Fertility-Related Services” (2023)

H.89 (Now Act 14) “An act relating to civil and criminal procedures concerning legally protected health care activity” and S.37 (Now Act 15) “An act relating to access to legally protected health care activity and regulation of health care providers” (Both of these bills were passed in 2023 and are now current law.)
House Bill 89 (Act 14) and Senate Bill 37 (Act 15) were companion bills created to protect "health care providers" who were providing "legally protected healthcare" to both residents of Vermont, and nationwide, regardless of what other states' laws were regarding such "healthcare." In essence H.89 and S.37 allows for abortions to be offered by Vermont "health care providers" in states that have banned abortion and/or gender affirming care. These two bills: *Shield abortion providers from potential lawsuits. *Attack Vermont Pregnancy Resources Centers in an effort to shut them down. *Begin the process of promoting abortion on college campuses. *Censure health care providers who discuss, refer, or wish to engage in the … [Read More...] about H.89 (Now Act 14) “An act relating to civil and criminal procedures concerning legally protected health care activity” and S.37 (Now Act 15) “An act relating to access to legally protected health care activity and regulation of health care providers” (Both of these bills were passed in 2023 and are now current law.)

H.372 and S.125: Vermont Legislature’s Latest Efforts to Decriminalize Prostitution ~ 2023
Vermont Legislators began introducing bills in 2020 to decriminalize prostitution. 2021, 2022, and now 2023 saw continued efforts to pass this legislation. This year we saw the House introduce H.372, "An act relating to voluntary engagement in sex work." It's companion bill, S.125, "An act relating to voluntary engagement in sex work" was also introduced this session. Although neither bill advanced during the 2023 legislative session, H.372 and S.125 both still "sit on the wall" and can be taken up in the 2024 session at any time. Please stand with our most vulnerable citizens and reach out to the legislators who are promoting these efforts. Ask them to stand up for those who struggle to stand up for themselves. Ask them to … [Read More...] about H.372 and S.125: Vermont Legislature’s Latest Efforts to Decriminalize Prostitution ~ 2023

H.190 (Now Act 10) “An act relating to removing the residency requirement from Vermont’s patient choice at end of life laws”
S.77 (Now Act 39) became law in 2013. This law was introduced as "An act relating to patient choice and control at end of life." When initially passed there were numerous safeguards in place for this new practice of physician assisted suicide. H.190, introduced and passed into law in 2023, is just one more slide down the "slippery slope" of removing safeguard after safeguard after safeguard from the initial bill. This year H.190 was successful in removing the requirement of being a Vermont resident in order to access assisted suicide in our state. Now residents from across the nation, if not worldwide, can come to Vermont, regardless if assisted suicide is legal in their home state or not, as long as all steps in the process are … [Read More...] about H.190 (Now Act 10) “An act relating to removing the residency requirement from Vermont’s patient choice at end of life laws”
