rights amendment.

Nevada  Pennsylvania


UPDATE: The Nevada trial judge who ruled in March 2024 that the state's Medicaid
exclusion for abortion care violated Nevada's Equal Rights Amendment issued a
written jugment and order in August 2024 explaining her ruling. The state did not
appeal within the 30-day period triggered by the judgment. As reported in the Nevada
Independent, a state spokesperson has confirmed that Nevada Medicaid will be
updating its coverage policy to reflect the court's ruling.
