Criminal abortion
ABORTION – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding criminal abortion.

RS29982 / S1002

This legislation amends Idaho's criminal abortion law, section 18-622, to change the definition of abortion. The key effect is to put the focus on whether a living human child is being killed, and this legislation offers clarity on medical intervention in the case of ectopic pregnancy and other medical situations.

There is no fiscal impact to the general fund or local governments.
