Governor Steve Sisolak signed Senate Bill 190 into law Tuesday, which allows women to receive birth control through a pharmacy and bypass a doctor's visit.
The bill was sponsored by Senator Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzaro and introduced on March 8. The bill passed unanimously in the Senate and 28-13 in the Assembly.
“Increasing access to health care is a cornerstone of my administration, which is why I was so glad to see the Nevada Legislature bring forward so many bills related to improving the health of Nevadans – and more importantly, related to women’s health, said Governor Sisolak. ”Together, we are making Nevada a more inclusive and healthy State.”
