Louisiana has indicted a New York doctor for prescribing abortion pills to a Louisiana patient online. An arrest warrant has been issued for Dr. Margaret Carpenter, as well as the mother of the patient, who was a minor, on a felony charge of criminal abortion by means of abortion-inducing drugs. Under Louisiana’s abortion ban, Dr. Carpenter could face a 15-year prison sentence, $200,000 in fines and the loss of her medical license. New York Governor Kathy Hochul vowed to uphold New York’s shield laws as she issued this video response.

Gov. Kathy Hochul: “I will never, under any circumstances, turn this doctor over to the state of Louisiana under any extradition request.”
