HB 2489 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Requires organizations that provide pregnancy-related services to provide medically accurate information regarding reproductive health options in order to receive state funding

HB 2489 requires state-funded organizations providing pregnancy-related services (like family planning, abortion care, prenatal care, or adoption counseling) to share medically accurate and unbiased information about all reproductive health options - including birth control, pregnancy, adoption, and postpartum care. To qualify for state funding, these organizations must provide information verified by medical research, recognized by major health bodies (such as the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists or CDC), or aligned with national medical guidelines. The bill defines "medically accurate" through three specific criteria to ensure information is evidence-based and objective. This applies directly to clinics and providers seeking state financial support for pregnancy-related services. The bill is currently pending in committee (prefiled December 2025, read twice January 2026).
