LC 4349 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Generally revise laws related to chemical abortion

This Montana bill revises laws governing chemical abortion by establishing specific requirements for health care providers and imposing penalties for violations. It mandates that providers physically examine patients, be present during administration, schedule follow-up visits within seven days, and supply catch kits for proper disposal of medical waste. The legislation also holds drug manufacturers financially responsible for cleaning up wastewater contaminated by endocrine-disrupting chemicals from at-home abortions. While the bill imposes felony penalties on providers who fail to meet these conditions, it includes exceptions for procedures necessary to preserve a mother's life and does not allow prosecution of patients.
