HB 2411 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - Second Regular Session

coerced abortion; abortion-inducing drugs

HB 2411 makes it a class 2 felony to knowingly administer or give an abortion-inducing drug to a pregnant woman without her knowledge or consent, with the intent to cause an abortion. The bill defines "abortion-inducing drug" broadly to include off-label uses of medications like mifepristone (RU-486) or misoprostol, while excluding drugs prescribed for other medical purposes (e.g., chemotherapy) or contraceptives used as intended. It explicitly states this law does not prevent prosecution under other laws if the drug causes death or injury. The bill focuses on criminalizing non-consensual administration of such drugs, not on restricting abortion access generally.
