Texas Bill Requiring Fetal Death Certificates (HB 2349)

HB 2349 would require a physician to physician’s assistant to file a fetal death certificate for each death of an “unborn child” that occurs as a result of an abortion performed by a physician regardless of the gestational age of the fetus at the time the abortion is performed.

The bill would require a copy of the death certificate to be provided to the individual on whom the abortion was performed.
