Delaware Senate Approves Abortion Coverage Bill

Delaware's Senate approved a bill mandating abortion coverage by Medicaid and private health insurance plans, with exemptions for churches and a yearly cap of $750 per person. This move makes Delaware the 11th state to require private insurance and the 18th for Medicaid to cover abortions, costing taxpayers around $500,000 annually. In Massachusetts, a maternal health bill passed unanimously focuses on improving outcomes, including licensing midwives and enhancing care options for pregnant women and new mothers. Meanwhile, Delaware's Senate also narrowly passed a bill legalizing assisted suicide by one vote, sparking debate and potential future challenges to the law.
