Summary

The measure adds a new state law that prevents any criminal or adverse action against a person because of a miscarriage, stillbirth, abortion, or other pregnancy outcome. It also eliminates Kentucky's existing statute that makes concealing an infant's birth a crime. The change affects anyone who is pregnant or has recently given birth and removes a specific criminal provision.
