2011 Washington legislative session
Our priorities remain steady as we advocate for the rights of all women and their families.
Our top priorities for the 2011 legislative session were:
- Protect women from deceptive and dangerous practices by "limited service pregnancy centers."
- Clarify and protect the rights of parents who are registered domestic partners and permit compensated surrogacy agreements, subject to stringent protections for women acting as surrogates.
