YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCalifornia's governor and top legislative leaders want to add abortion protections to the state's constitution.
Their comments came just hours after Politico published a draft opinion from the U.S. Supreme Court.
The opinion indicated a majority of justices support overturning the decision that stops states from banning abortions.
If that happens, abortion rights groups say at least 26 states are likely to restrict or ban the procedure.
Speaking at a Planned Parenthood office in Los Angeles, Gov. Gavin Newsom pledged to make California a sanctuary for people from other states seeking abortions.
"We will affirm the constitutional, currently constitutionally protected rights of women and girls, the reproductive rights and freedoms in California," the Democrat said.
Adding abortion protections to the state's constitution would make it much harder for future lawmakers to repeal them.
