Women are less likely to receive CPR in an emergency. A state lawmaker wants to change that

Women are 27% less likely to receive CPR from a bystander than men because of concerns of inappropriate touching, exposing of the chest or accusations of sexual assault, according to the Journal of the American Heart Association.
