Human heartbeat act.

Summary

The Human Heartbeat Act makes it illegal to perform or attempt an abortion once a fetal heartbeat can be detected, unless a medical emergency threatens the pregnant woman's life or health. Providers must first confirm a detectable heartbeat using standard medical practices. Violations are felonies and can result in loss of professional licenses.
