CT SB01530

Expands legal protections to apply regardless of whether the patient was physically located in Connecticut at the time services were provided, replacing the previous "resident of" language

Allows individuals sued in other states over lawful reproductive or gender-affirming health care to recover damages once an action is filed against them, rather than waiting until a judgment is entered

Prohibits Connecticut public agencies from assisting federal investigations or proceedings seeking to impose liability for lawful reproductive or gender-affirming health care, unless pursuant to a court order

Repeals four existing statutes (52-146x, 52-155b, 52-571n, and 54-155b) and consolidates healthcare protection provisions, effective October 1, 2025
