AL HB317

Requires physicians administering abortion-inducing drugs (mifepristone and misoprostol) to inform women by telephone or in person that reversal may be possible if they change their mind, with time being critical.

Mandates the Alabama Department of Public Health publish information on its website within 90 days regarding the possibility of reversing chemical abortions and available resources, in English and languages spoken by 2% or more of the state's population.

Makes it a Class C felony for any individual to knowingly or recklessly perform or induce an abortion in violation of this act.

Allows the woman, father of the unborn child, or grandparents (if the woman is under 19 or deceased) to bring civil actions for actual and punitive damages against individuals who perform illegal abortions, with a two-year statute of limitations.

Exempts the woman receiving an abortion from criminal penalties and civil liability; provides privacy protections for women in court proceedings by allowing anonymity unless she consents to disclosure.
