Mandates public school health curriculum for grades 7-12 to include depictions of fetal development weekly during pregnancy, abortion procedures, consequences of fetal termination, and resources supporting carrying to term from non-abortion organizations.
information on and depictions of: (A) medically assisted fetal termination procedures, including the use of abortion-inducing drugs, as defined by Section 171.061, Health and Safety Code; (B) other acts of intentional or negligent fetal termination, including termination resulting from the adverse effects of drugs and alcohol; and (C) the growth and development of an unborn child that occur during each week of pregnancy; and (2) information on pregnancy-related resources available to students, including resources provided by local faith-based organizations, that: (A) support carrying a child
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds mandatory public school instruction on weekly fetal development, depictions of abortion procedures and other fetal terminations, and resources favoring carrying to term while excluding abortion providers/advocates; this is a substantive change to abortion-related education policy that restricts access by aiming to discourage termination.
