****Parental Notification and Intervention Act of 2025**** This bill restricts the performance of an abortion on an unemancipated minor under 18 years of age. Specifically, it prohibits a person or organization from performing, facilitating, or assisting with an abortion on an unemancipated minor without first complying with certain requirements, including parental notification and a 96-hour waiting period. It establishes penalties—a fine, up to one year in prison, or both—for each willful violation. A parent who is required to be notified of an abortion of an unemancipated minor may sue in federal court to prohibit the abortion. Parental notification requirements may be waived in a medical emergency or in a case of physical abuse.

**Dignity for Aborted Children Act** This bill establishes requirements for abortion providers with respect to the disposal of human fetal tissue from an abortion. Specifically, it requires abortion providers to obtain a patient's informed consent for one of two specified methods of disposition and to retain the corresponding documentation in the patient's file. First, patients may choose to retain possession of the tissue. A patient may choose to transfer the tissue to an entity that provides interment or cremation services. Second, patients may choose to release the tissue to the provider. Providers must ensure any tissue released to them is interred or cremated within seven days of the procedure in a manner consistent with state law regarding the disposal of human remains. Abortion providers must submit reports annually to the Department of Health and Human Services about these requirements and other specified information. The bill establishes civil penalties for violations of the requirement to retain documentation of informed consent, and it establishes criminal penalties for violations of the requirement regarding the disposal of human fetal tissue.

**Second Chance for Moms Act of 2025** This bill requires labeling of the drug mifepristone to include certain information about the hormone progesterone and establishes a related telephone hotline. (Mifepristone is a drug that is approved to end pregnancies through 10 weeks gestation when used in conjunction with the drug misoprostol. The procedure is often referred to as medication abortion or the abortion pill.)

**Pregnancy Is Not an Illness Act of 2025** This bill prohibits the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from treating pregnancy as an illness for the purposes of approving any abortion drug or imposing a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy for an abortion drug. The bill also nullifies FDA approval of any abortion drug that relied at all on the treatment of pregnancy as an illness, and specifically nullifies the FDA’s approval of the abortion drug mifepristone in effect before the bill is enacted.
