Bill > HR3218

This bill, known as the Reproductive Data Privacy and Protection Act, amends Title 18 of the United States Code to protect individuals' reproductive and sexual health information from legal investigations and proceedings. Specifically, the bill modifies procedures for intercepting wire, oral, or electronic communications by requiring applicants to affirm that they will not use communication contents to investigate or prosecute anyone seeking, providing, or facilitating reproductive or sexual health treatment. The bill provides a broad definition of reproductive or sexual health information, which includes details about reproductive surgeries, contraceptive use, medical conditions related to reproduction, pregnancy, sexual activity, and associated medical services. When government entities seek to compel disclosure of communications or records, they must provide an oath stating that they will not use the information to investigate or pursue legal action against individuals involved in reproductive healthcare. This legislation aims to create additional legal protections for people accessing or providing reproductive health services, ensuring that their personal health information cannot be used as evidence in potential legal proceedings.
