Why the model tagged it this way: The bill regulates IVF by limiting procedures to patients intending to carry every embryo to term and banning termination of any unborn child from resulting multifetal pregnancies, which invokes fetal personhood concepts and adds provider restrictions with penalties; these provisions substantively address abortion-related topics under the given definitions, with no other listed topics triggered.
