In a new bill signed Sunday, insurance companies will now be required to cover fertility treatments, including IVF, in California.

The new law will require large-group health plans to provide coverage for the diagnosis and treatment of infertility."While the GOP try to strip away access, we're expanding it," Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a tweet Sunday. "Everyone who wants to should be able to start a family--without going broke.

The move comes as Republicans in the Senate blocked legislation last week to establish a nationwide right to IVF for a second time this year."California is a proud reproductive freedom state – and that includes increasing access to fertility services that help those who want to start a family.
