Summary
This bill seeks to amend title 18, United States Code, by establishing new federal prohibitions related to chemical abortions. It specifically targets the provision or attempted provision of abortion through chemical abortion drugs without the direct physical involvement of a healthcare provider. The legislation makes it an offense to administer chemical abortion drugs without physically examining the patient , being physically present at the location of the abortion, and providing a catch kit and red bag medical waste with instructions for proper disposal. Violators could face imprisonment for up to five years, a fine of up to $50,000, or both, for each occurrence. The bill defines "abortion" broadly to include any act using drugs or other means to terminate a pregnancy with the likelihood of causing the death of an unborn child, which is defined as an individual from fertilization until live birth. However, it explicitly excludes acts performed to save the life or preserve the health of the unborn child, remove a dead unborn child from spontaneous abortion, or treat an ectopic pregnancy. The measure also defines "chemical abortion drug" to include mifepristone, misoprostol, and similar substances.
