H 4161: Life

H 4161 would amend South Carolina law to define "life" as beginning at conception for all state legal purposes. This declarative statement would apply to all existing and future state laws that reference "life" or "personhood," without creating new regulations or altering specific policies. The bill does not change abortion access, medical procedures, or other laws - it only establishes this definition for interpreting state statutes. The bill was introduced on March 6, 2025, and referred to the Judiciary Committee.
