Bill > SF1832

This bill, known as the Protect Reproductive Options Act, proposes several key provisions: 1. It prohibits partial-birth abortions and abortions in the third trimester of pregnancy, except in certain circumstances such as to save the life of the mother or in cases of rape, incest, or medical emergencies. 2. It requires abortion facilities to be licensed by the Commissioner of Health, with facilities needing to be accredited or members of an accrediting or membership organization. 3. It requires that a parent or guardian of a minor on whom an abortion is performed be notified within 24 hours in certain medical emergency situations. 4. It states that any unborn child born alive following an attempted abortion must be treated as a person under the law, with a birth certificate issued. The bill also includes language related to severability and appropriates funds for the licensure of abortion facilities.
