California Governor Refuses Louisiana Extradition Request

California Gov. Gavin Newsom and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul are refusing to extradite doctors to Louisiana after Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill sued them over alleged shipments of mifepristone. Murrill's lawsuit cites the 1873 Comstock Act and asks courts to determine whether mailing mifepristone to Louisiana violates federal law, directly challenging cross-state medication abortion distribution.
