Expressing the sense of Congress that a woman's ability to travel out of State to receive services available in that State which would otherwise not be available in the State that they reside in, is protected under Article IV of the Constitution.
Summary
H.J.Res. 34 is a joint resolution that expresses the official position of Congress regarding a woman's right to travel across state lines to access healthcare or other services. It asserts that under Article IV of the U.S. Constitution, states should not pass laws that prevent or penalize residents for traveling to another state to obtain services that are legal in that state but restricted in their home state. While this resolution serves as a formal statement of congressional intent rather than a self-executing law, it aims to reinforce legal protections for interstate travel and discourage states from enacting travel-related restrictions.
