Stop Comstock Act: Securing Access to Reproductive Health Supplies.

This bill removes outdated federal law provisions that could be used to block the mailing or importation of medications and information related to abortion and contraception. The change aims to ensure citizens have uninterrupted access to reproductive health supplies regardless of where they live. The law will now focus strictly on materials deemed "obscene," removing references to "indecent" or "immoral" items.
Key points
Eliminates federal prohibitions on mailing or transporting supplies and information related to abortion and contraception.
Narrows federal shipping and import bans to cover only materials legally defined as "obscene."
Ensures reproductive health medications and devices can be legally shipped and imported across state lines.
