2009 Bill(s)

* SS HCS HB 46
Sponsor: Davis, Cynthia
Status: Back to H
Description: Create a crime of coercing an abortion. Impose requirements on informing a woman of alternatives and pictures of fetal development prior to an abortion. SS removes the abortion coercion provsions. The House asks for a conference committee on the bill. The Senate refuses, leading to a toss back and forth between the two chambers of each chamber's version of the bill.
See: 
  • Senate roll call - SS HCS HB 46 (05/13/2009): Expand the information a doctor must provide to a woman at least 24 hours before an abortion including the opportunity to see a fetus of the child.
  • House roll call - HCS HB 46 (03/11/2009): 3rd reading of a bill to require a 24-hour waiting period for an abortion and require doctors to provide information on abortion alternatives to a woman seeking an abortion.
  • House roll call - HCS HB 46 (03/05/2009): Perfection of a bill to require a 24-hour waiting period for an abortion and require doctors to provide information on abortion alternatives to a woman seeking an abortion.

  • Note: The descriptions of bills, amendments and roll-call votes are written by MDN journalists. MDN's database may not include committee assignments of bills made on the last day of the session since it is too late for the committee to act on the bill and, thus, the delayed assignment has no practical effect.
