OK SB456

Removes the existing legal exception that protected abortion from homicide laws, making abortion subject to Oklahoma's criminal homicide statutes

Extends homicide and assault laws to apply when the victim is an unborn child, with the same presumptions, defenses, and immunities as cases involving born persons

Removes the provision that explicitly protected mothers from prosecution for causing the death of their unborn child, while adding duress as an available defense specifically for mothers charged with murder of an unborn child

Exempts from prosecution life-saving procedures to save the mother when accompanied by reasonable steps to save the unborn child, spontaneous miscarriages, and standard diagnostic testing or therapeutic treatment

Declares an emergency for immediate effect upon passage and applies prospectively only to conduct after the effective date
