Governor Brown has two unsigned reproductive justice bills on his desk and we need YOU to make sure he signs them into law before the September 30th deadline!

I. AB 2289 (Weber) – Young Parents’ Right to Education Act: Right to parent with dignity, proper resources, and in safe environments

Summary: This bill builds upon prior legislative initiatives to promote educational equity for all students regardless of sex. It allows pregnant and parenting students to continue their education by ensuring that they receive parental and sick leave, which will help to increase high school graduation rates.
