MODERATE

The bill was reorganized from a standard legislative format into a clean, plain-text statute. The core policy regarding abortion-inducing drugs, including the prohibition on mailing them and the associated felony and misdemeanor penalties, remained substantively unchanged. A new exemption was added to protect federal motor carriers and logistics providers from civil lawsuits under this specific state law.

Scope change

The bill's substantive scope regarding drug distribution and penalties remained the same, but a new exemption was added to protect specific federal transportation entities from civil liability.

ENFORCEMENT

Added a provision stating that federal motor carriers, air carriers, and third-party logistics providers cannot be sued under this section.

TECHNICAL

Converted the bill from a formatted document with page headers and footers into a plain-text statutory text.

Standardized the capitalization of terms like 'person' and 'subsection' to be consistent throughout the text.

Reordered the statutory subsections, moving the definition of 'abortion-inducing drug' to the end and inserting the new exemption as subsection G.
