HB1193 makes it a crime for someone to intentionally cause an abortion without a pregnant woman's consent, treating it as a serious offense similar to other crimes against the person. The bill creates a new criminal penalty to protect pregnant women from having abortions forced upon them against their will. This adds a specific crime to South Dakota law that didn't previously exist as its own distinct offense.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
