Virginia Senate passes bill to shield doctors from extradition for gender-affirming and reproductive care.

Virginia's Senate has passed a bill that would protect doctors from being extradited to other states for providing gender-affirming and reproductive care that is legal in Virginia. The bill, sponsored by Democrat Ghazala Hashmi, has sparked debate, with Republicans arguing it could be used to evade other states' laws. The legislation now heads to the House and could face a veto from Governor Glenn Youngkin.
