Bill > S1325

This bill, the "Woman's Right To Know Act," aims to ensure that women seeking an abortion are informed of the medical risks associated with the procedure and the major developmental characteristics of the unborn child before giving their informed consent. The key provisions include requiring abortion providers to present an informed consent form to the woman at least 24 hours prior to the procedure, which must include information about the gestational age, medical risks, and fetal development. The bill also imposes civil penalties on providers who fail to comply with these requirements and allows women or their parents to file civil lawsuits against providers for violations. The bill does not preempt any state laws that have more extensive disclosure requirements or penalties.
