Andrew Yang Policy on RIGHT TO PRIVACY/ABORTION AND CONTRACEPTION

In a perfect world, only those who are ready for and desire a child would become pregnant. But that’s not the world we live in.

Everyone has a right to bodily integrity, and more needs to be done to ensure that women have and maintain that right.

Access to birth control should be provided to all Americans. It should be the decision of each individual whether she wants to use it, not a decision made for her by her doctor, family, or where she lives.

Access to safe and affordable abortion services should also be provided to all Americans. Requirements placed by individual states on access should be subject to oversight by a board of doctors, not the whims of legislators who have no background on the procedure or even the basics of medicine.
