HB 1097 - Florida for Life Act

• Enacts comprehensive prohibition on induced abortion in Florida, making it a first-degree felony for any person to induce, perform, attempt to perform, or assist in an induced abortion, with exceptions only for medical emergencies threatening the pregnant woman's life or serious health conditions.

• Permits termination of pregnancy only when two physicians certify in writing that it is necessary to prevent death of the pregnant woman or serious health impairment, or when a single physician documents a medical emergency in the patient's medical records.

• Requires all terminations of pregnancy to be performed only by physicians, with voluntary and informed written consent from the patient (or parent/guardian for minors), including disclosure of nature and risks of the procedure and medical risks of carrying pregnancy to term.

• Establishes separate fallback provisions (sections 390.01117 and 390.01118) that take effect only if the main abortion ban is declared unconstitutional, creating a viability-based restriction framework and parental notification requirements for minors without judicial bypass options.

• Mandates that physicians and medical facility personnel inform women about adoption services and establish a statewide list of attorneys providing pro bono adoption services for women with unwanted pregnancies.
