It\u2019s a point of pride that we welcome you back; we want to celebrate that we have you back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Two days after the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling, Newsom, Democratic Senate President pro-Tempore Toni Atkins, and Democratic Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon also announced a state budget agreement that referred to the court\u2019s abortion ruling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis budget builds on our unprecedented commitment to transform the resources available in our state, from a $47 billion multi-year infrastructure and transportation package to education and health care, showing the nation what a true pro-life agenda looks like,\u201d they said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2022\/06\/26\/governor-newsom-senate-president-pro-tempore-atkins-and-assembly-speaker-rendon-announce-budget-agreement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith these new investments, California will become the first state to achieve universal access to health care coverage. And in the wake of Friday\u2019s stunning Supreme Court decision, the state is reaffirming its commitment to defending reproductive rights, providing more than $200 million in additional funding for reproductive health care services,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom also signed legislation in March that eliminated out-of-pocket expenses for abortion services in California.
