Requires that there be a one hundred foot buffer zone around abortion clinics
This bill requires abortion clinics to maintain a 100-foot buffer zone around all entrances to prevent patient harassment. It directly affects abortion clinics and patients seeking care by legally prohibiting specific disruptive behaviors within that zone. Key provisions define "harassment" to include physically blocking access, following patients, interfering with medical procedures, or damaging facilities within 100 feet. The law takes immediate effect upon passage.
