Requires providers to give women detailed risk information 24 hours before a chemical abortion.
This bill would require chemical abortion providers who receive federal funds to give women detailed risk information and read it aloud 24 hours before a chemical abortion. It would also allow women or their parents to sue providers who don't follow these rules. This aims to ensure women are fully aware of risks and creates legal options if rules are broken.
Currently, there is no specific federal mandate under the Public Health Service Act requiring chemical abortion providers receiving federal funds to provide specific Food and Drug Administration-approved product labels or read highlighted risk sections to women 24 hours prior to a chemical abortion. This bill would require chemical abortion providers receiving federal funds to provide specific Food and Drug Administration-approved product labels with highlighted risk sections and read those sections to women 24 hours before a chemical abortion. It would also establish penalties for non-compliance, including withholding federal funding and allowing civil lawsuits for damages up to three times the cost of the abortion.
