Abortion; creating the Oklahoma Mother and Child Protection Act; authorizing certain qui tam actions. Emergency.

Summary

The bill defines abortion and abortion‑inducing drugs, then makes it illegal to manufacture, distribute, prescribe, or help provide those drugs in Oklahoma, except for a few medical situations such as life‑threatening conditions, ectopic pregnancies, or removal of a dead fetus. Enforcement can only be carried out through private qui tam lawsuits; the state and its officials cannot bring or threaten enforcement actions. The measure also preserves certain First Amendment speech and actions that are not aimed at obtaining an abortion.
