Starbucks says it will now offer employees enrolled in its health care plan reimbursement for eligible travel expenses when accessing abortion or gender-affirming procedures, when those services are not available within 100 miles of a worker’s home. The Seattle coffee chain said Monday that the benefit will also be available to dependents of employees enrolled in its health care coverage.
