Digest
SB 1204 expands the legal recognition of unborn children by amending multiple statutes to classify unborn children as individuals at all stages of development from fertilization to birth. The bill removes certain legal protections for healthcare providers performing medical procedures that result in the death of an unborn child, except in cases where the procedure is necessary to save the life of the pregnant woman. Additionally, it eliminates exceptions for assisted reproduction and prescription drug use, potentially increasing criminal and civil liability related to the loss of an unborn child.
