S1284Civil Liability for the Wrongful Death of an Unborn Child
Direction

↓Restricts abortion accessmodel confidence 70%
Expands the definition of 'person' for wrongful death liability to include an 'unborn child' at any stage of development carried in the womb, and allows parents to recover damages for its death, which recognizes fetal personhood and could affect IVF or related practices.
“Unborn child” means a member of the species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill substantively addresses abortion via fetal personhood by defining 'unborn child' as a Homo sapiens at any stage in the womb, expanding survivors to include parents for wrongful death damages, and allowing recovery for mental pain and suffering; the exceptions for mothers and standard-care providers are noted but do not negate the personhood expansion. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
