California Gov. Newsom Signs 13 Abortion Protection Bills & Outlaws "Pink Tax"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a bill outlawing what's
known as the pink tax. The new law bars companies from charging
different prices for products marketed for women. Newsom also signed 13
abortion protection and reproductive health bills Tuesday, as well as
legislation aimed to better identify gender- and race-based pay
disparities.
