Clean Water for All Life Act
This bill, titled the Clean Water for All Life Act, would amend federal criminal law to prohibit chemical abortions unless a healthcare provider is physically present during the procedure. It directly affects individuals who prescribe, administer, or assist with chemical abortion drugs like mifepristone and misoprostol by making it a federal crime to provide these services without a physical exam and the provider's presence. The law requires that patients receive a catch kit and red bag medical waste container with disposal instructions, and it defines an unborn child as beginning at fertilization. Violations could result in up to five years in prison and a $50,000 fine for each occurrence. The bill does not address other forms of abortion or change existing state laws.
