MADISON, WI – Reporting prior to the Thanksgiving holiday from Fox 11 WLUK and 27 WKOW highlighted Senate Democrats’ continued efforts to fight back against Wisconsin Republicans’ attempts to restrict women’s right to access safe and effective medical treatment.

The bill also proposes holding doctors criminally liable if they do not enforce this requirement by providing "catch-kits" to patients.
