Abortion
Abortion is safe and legal in the State of Nevada. The procedure is governed by NRS 442.250. Any person in Nevada who is pregnant has the legal right to choose to have an abortion when performed by a licensed physician within the first 24 weeks of pregnancy. An abortion may be performed after 24 weeks where the physician has reasonable cause to believe an abortion is necessary to preserve the life or health of the pregnant person. You do not have to be a Nevada resident to receive abortion care in the state.
Expanding on NRS 442.250, in 2019, Governor Sisolak signed into law Senate Bill 179, the Trust Nevada Women Act, which decriminalized medication abortions and removed antiquated informed consent laws and other barriers to accessing reproductive health care. Governor Sisolak continues his commitment to ensuring Nevadans have access to safe and legal reproductive health care, including abortion, by expanding on the progress made in the Trust Nevada Women Act and challenging any attacks on existing law.
