Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends federal criminal and civil penalty provisions specifically to impose higher fines and longer prison terms for attacks or destruction targeting pregnancy resource centers (facilities exclusively providing abortion-alternative counseling), which falls under abortion provider-clinic regulation and other abortion-related protections; this has the effect of restricting abortion access by safeguarding alternatives to abortion.
