Summary

The bill would treat every abortion as a criminal act under a new "Alexa's law" and change the definition of "person" to include unborn children. It also narrows the circumstances in which a wrongful‑death lawsuit can be brought for the death of an unborn child, keeping only a few medical exceptions. The measure failed to advance and died in committee.
