The bill establishes a new chapter in Title 28B RCW aimed at improving access to medication abortion services at public postsecondary educational institutions in Washington. It recognizes access to abortion as a human right and highlights the significant barriers faced by students seeking these services, including travel distances and wait times exacerbated by recent legal changes. The legislation mandates that by the start of the 2026-27 academic year, all student health centers must offer medication abortion services, either directly or through telehealth, while institutions without health centers must provide information and referral services for students seeking medication abortion.

Additionally, the bill requires public institutions to maintain a comprehensive health services website that includes resources related to reproductive health, including prenatal care and pregnancy termination options. This website must provide clear instructions for scheduling appointments, links to campus resources for academic accommodations, and direct access to the state's health department's abortion information. The intent of the legislation is to ensure that medication abortion is accessible and cost-effective for students, thereby supporting their health and academic success.
