Bill overview
This Arizona bill, HB 2074, makes changes to the state’s laws regarding partial-birth abortions. It defines ‘partial-birth abortion,’ establishes a felony for physicians who knowingly perform them, and creates a civil action for the father and grandparents to seek damages if the procedure is performed without justification. Critically, the bill mandates that all medical personnel with knowledge of a partial-birth abortion must report it to law enforcement, and outlines a process for medical board review in cases where the procedure is claimed to be medically necessary to save a mother’s life.
