Creates a new crime of feticide for intentionally causing the death of an unborn child at any stage of gestation (except legal abortions under public health law), treating the fetus as a separate victim of homicide from conception onward.
A person is guilty of feticide when with intent to cause the death of an unborn child at any stage of gestation, such person causes the termination of a person's pregnancy resulting in the death of such unborn child at any stage of gestation, except when such termination occurs in accordance with section twenty-five hundred ninety-nine-bb of the public health law.

↓Restricts abortion accessmodel confidence 80%
Establishes feticide as a class A felony for intentional termination resulting in fetal death at any stage of gestation (except lawful abortions), effectively creating a homicide prohibition on abortion from conception.
A person is guilty of feticide when with intent to cause the death of an unborn child at any stage of gestation, such person causes the termination of a person's pregnancy resulting in the death of such unborn child at any stage of gestation, except when such termination occurs in accordance with section twenty-five hundred ninety-nine-bb of the public health law.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill creates a new homicide offense (feticide) that applies to intentional killing of an unborn child at any stage of gestation, with an exception only for abortions compliant with existing public health law. This substantively addresses abortion via fetal personhood (treating the unborn child as a homicide victim) and a total gestational ban on non-compliant terminations.
