3402. Abortion pill reversal informed consent

(a) Requirement of compliance by providers

Effective 30 days after the date of enactment of the Second Chance at Life Act of 2025, any abortion provider in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, who knowingly performs any chemical abortion, shall comply with the requirements of this title.

(b) Informed consent

Except in the case of a medical emergency described in section 3403, a chemical abortion involving the two drug process of dispensing mifepristone first and then misoprostol shall not be performed or induced or attempted to be performed or induced without the following:

(1)

The woman is informed, by telephone or in person, by the physician who is to perform the chemical abortion, by a referring physician, or by an agent of either physician at least 24 hours before the chemical abortion, that—

(A)

it may be possible to reverse the intended effects of a mifepristone-induced chemical abortion if the woman changes her mind but that time is of the essence; and

information on and assistance with reversing the effects of a mifepristone-induced chemical abortion is available on the website of the Department of Health and Human Services required by section 3405(b).

(2)

After the first drug involved in the two drug process is dispensed in a mifepristone-induced chemical abortion, the physician shall provide written medical discharge instructions to the pregnant woman which must include the statement:

Recent developing research has indicated that mifepristone alone is not always effective in ending a pregnancy. It may be possible to avoid, cease, or even to reverse the intended effects of a mifepristone-induced chemical abortion if the second pill has not been taken. Please consult with a health care professional immediately.

3403. Exception for medical emergencies

(a) Exception

The provisions of section 3402 shall not apply in the case where a woman suffers from a physical disorder, physical injury, or physical illness that would, as certified by a physician, place the woman in danger of death unless an abortion is performed, including a life-endangering physical condition caused by or arising from the pregnancy itself.

(b) Certification

Upon a determination by an abortion provider under subsection (a) that an abortion is necessary to save the life of a mother, such provider shall include in the medical file of the pregnant woman a truthful and accurate certification of the specific medical circumstances that support such determination.

Research has indicated that mifepristone alone is not always effective in ending a pregnancy and that its effects can be blocked or reversed if the second pill has not yet been taken. If you change your mind prior to taking the second pill and desire to attempt to save your pregnancy, consult with a health care professional immediately.

(b) Lettering; size

The sign required by subsection (a) shall be printed with lettering that is—
