The legislation would have guaranteed the right to obtain and use condoms, intrauterine devices and other birth control methods, and for health providers to prescribe them and give advice free from government interference.

New York lawmakers are proposing rules to humanely drive down the population of rats and other rodents, eyeing contraception and a ban on glue traps as alternatives to poison or a slow, brutal death. Politicians have long come up with creative ways to battle the rodents, but some lawmakers are now proposing city and statewide measures to do more. In New York City, the idea to distribute rat contraceptives got fresh attention in city government last week following the death of an escaped zoo owl, known as Flaco, who was found dead with rat poison in his system. City Council Member Shaun Abreu p...
