现在华盛顿允许免费分配其mifepristone库存, Washington now allows free distribution of its mifepristone stockpile to improve abortion access post-Roe.

华盛顿通过了一项法律,取消了在分配其储存的mifeprístone(堕胎药丸)时补偿成本的要求,允许在国家机构之间免费分发并协调确定接受者。 Washington has passed a law eliminating the requirement to recoup costs when distributing its stockpile of mifepristone, the abortion pill, allowing free distribution and coordination between state agencies to identify recipients. 这项改变由总督Bob Ferguson签署,是在Roe诉Wade案于2022年被推翻之后作出的,目的是在持续的法律挑战面前改善准入。 The change, signed by Governor Bob Ferguson, follows the 2022 overturning of Roe v. Wade and aims to improve access amid ongoing legal challenges. 国家以前在2023年购买了30,000剂,在过期后退还给制造商,2025年又购买了17,600剂,可以免费换新药丸。 The state previously purchased 30,000 doses in 2023, which were returned to the manufacturer as they expired, and another 17,600 doses in 2025 that can be exchanged for new pills at no cost. 另一批米索前列醇库存于2月到期，可能已被销毁。 A separate misoprostol stockpile expired in February and likely was destroyed. 该法立即生效,是保护获得生殖保健的更广泛努力的一部分,包括恢复资金和新的保险人费用。 The law, effective immediately, is part of broader efforts to protect reproductive health access, including restored funding and a new insurer fee.
