Contraception Begins at Erection Act; enact.
SB 2088, titled the "Contraception Begins at Erection Act," would prohibit discharging genetic material (e.g., sperm) without the intent to fertilize an egg, imposing fines of $1,000 for a first offense, $5,000 for a second, and $10,000 for subsequent offenses. The fines would be paid to the woman whose egg was fertilized as a result of the act. Exceptions include using contraceptives (defined broadly to cover methods like condoms, birth control pills, and IUDs) or donating genetic material for future fertilization. The bill was introduced in 2026 but died in committee.
