Bill > HB537

This bill establishes the Unborn Child Protection from Dismemberment Abortion Act in Missouri. It prohibits the performance of "dismemberment abortions," a procedure that involves dismembering a living unborn child and extracting it piece by piece from the uterus, except when necessary to prevent serious health risk to the mother. The bill provides for civil and criminal penalties for violations, allows for civil lawsuits by certain parties, and includes provisions to protect the anonymity of women who have undergone such abortions.
