Bill overview
The Woman’s Right to Know Act requires abortion providers to obtain specific informed consent from patients before performing an abortion. This includes presenting a detailed form at least 24 hours before the procedure, outlining the medical risks, the developmental characteristics of the fetus, and potential penalties for the provider. The bill also establishes civil penalties for providers who fail to comply and allows patients to sue for damages if informed consent requirements aren't met. It aims to ensure women are fully aware of the medical aspects of the procedure and potential consequences.
