Texas SB33 creates exceptions to abortion prohibitions for medical emergencies, lethal fetal anomalies, and life-limiting diagnoses.
Texas SB33 amends existing laws to create exceptions to certain prohibitions on abortion. It allows for abortions in cases of medical emergencies, lethal fetal anomalies, or when a fetus is diagnosed with a condition incompatible with life without extraordinary medical interventions. These exceptions apply regardless of the probable post-fertilization age of the unborn child and can be performed in unlicensed facilities under certain conditions. The changes take effect on the 91st day after the last day of the legislative session.
