The New York Assembly voted Tuesday night to pass a landmark bill to expand abortion rights in the state, about 90 minutes after the bill cleared the Democratic-controlled Senate by a vote of 38-24.

The Reproductive Health Act moved to the desk of Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who immediately signed the bill into law Tuesday night.

The Assembly voted 92-47 along party lines to pass the bill, with Central New York Democrats Pamela Hunter, Bill Magnarelli and Al Stirpe voting for the legislation. Republicans Will Barclay, John Salka and Gary Finch opposed the measure.

New York Democrats have been trying to pass the update to New York’s abortion rights law for the better part of a decade.

The historic vote on Tuesday was timed to come on the same day as the 46th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in the Roe v. Wade case that prevented states from banning abortion.
