AB 1930: Abortion or gender-affirming health care services: subpoenas, discovery requests, or other requests for information.
This bill aims to protect individuals engaged in legally protected health care activities from being compelled to provide information in response to civil, criminal, or regulatory inquiries, investigations, subpoenas, or summons. It requires that such inquiries, investigations, subpoenas, or summons contain or be accompanied by an affidavit under penalty of perjury attesting that the activity being investigated is unlawful under California civil or criminal law. The bill also authorizes the attorney general to intervene in any civil action to protect against compliance and to bring civil actions against entities that submit false affidavits. The attorney general can bring actions within 6 years of receiving notice of the inquiry, investigation, subpoena, or summons, and the court must award court costs and attorney's fees to the attorney general if it imposes any penalty.
