Full Bill Text
HB 4145 would ban the allocation of state funds through grants or contracts to entities that (1) perform abortions; (2) allow the performance of abortions in a facility owned or operated by the entity; (3) refer a pregnant woman to an abortion provider; (4) or adopt or maintain a written policy that abortion is considered part of family planning or reproductive health services.
Existing Michigan law establishes a funding formula the distribution of state and federal funds for family planning or reproductive services in order to direct funds away from entities that participate in abortion services. (See Mich. Comp. Law 333.1091; see also Guttmacher Institute,“Michigan Breaks New Ground in Restricting Family Planning Funds.”)
STATUS
Similar to HB 4161, which failed to pass in 2013.
