HB 1651 introduces a restriction in the Health and Safety Code, prohibiting the sale or distribution of abortion-inducing drugs via an Internet website unless the prescribing physician in Texas verifies the prescription following an in-person examination. Violations of this restriction are classified as deceptive trade practices and actionable under existing laws. The bill also clarifies that other sections in the subchapter, excluding this new restriction, result in criminal offenses punishable as state jail felonies. This regulation applies to transactions occurring on or after September 1, 2025.
