Summary

The bill declares that life begins at conception and that unborn children are entitled to the same legal protections as any other person in Missouri. It also affirms that natural parents have protectable interests in the child's wellbeing, but it explicitly prevents a cause of action against a woman for indirectly harming her unborn child. The measure would change how state laws are interpreted regarding fetal rights.
