Abortion; creating the Oklahoma Right to Life Act; prohibiting certain acts; imposing certain duty on health care providers; providing certain penalty and immunities. Emergency.
SB 884, the Oklahoma Right to Life Act, prohibits most abortions in Oklahoma, defining "abortion" as any action intending to terminate a pregnancy except when a health care provider determines a life-threatening condition exists for the pregnant person. The bill requires health care providers to make "every reasonable effort" to deliver the unborn person alive in such emergencies, with immunity from criminal prosecution or civil liability for providers who follow this standard. Violating the abortion prohibition carries a criminal penalty of first-degree murder under Oklahoma law. The bill directly affects health care providers performing abortions and individuals seeking abortion services, with no exceptions for rape or incest.
