AI Summary

This bill, the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act, aims to prohibit taking minors across state lines to circumvent state laws that require parental involvement in a minor's abortion decision. It creates new criminal penalties for those who transport minors across state lines to obtain an abortion without the required parental consent or notification. The bill also requires physicians who perform abortions on out-of-state minors to provide parental notification, with some exceptions. The legislation is intended to ensure that parental rights are upheld when a minor seeks an abortion, even if they cross state lines.
