HB 6 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 1st Called Session (2025)

Relating to the provision of abortion-inducing drugs, including the enforcement of and exceptions to laws regulating the provision of abortion-inducing drugs; providing a civil penalty.

HB 6 restricts how abortion-inducing drugs (like abortion pills) can be provided in Texas. It prohibits physicians, pharmacies, or others from giving or delivering these drugs via mail, courier, or delivery services, except in specific cases. The law requires physicians to examine patients in person before providing the drugs and verify pregnancy details, with exceptions only for medical emergencies or other non-abortion medical reasons. Violations could result in civil penalties. This directly affects healthcare providers, pharmacists, and anyone involved in distributing abortion medication.
