Section 26-23E-10 Paternity inquiries of pregnant minor child; reporting requirements. (a)
Any minor child under the age of 16 seeking an abortion from an abortion or
reproductive health care facility shall be asked by the physician performing the abortion
or his or her agent to state the name and age of the individual who is believed to be the
father of the unborn child. While the minor child may refuse to provide the father's name
and age, she should be encouraged to do so by the physician or agent consistent with the physician's
legal obligation to reduce the incidence of child abuse when there is reason to suspect that
it has occurred. (b) In addition to any other abuse reporting requirements that may apply
to the staff of an abortion or reproductive health center, if the reported age of the
father is two or more years greater than the age of the minor child, the facility shall report

(a) The Legislature of the State of Alabama finds all of the following: (1) Under the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act, P.L. 111-148, federal tax dollars, via affordability credits,
subsidies provided to individuals between 150-400 percent of the federal poverty level, are
routed to exchange participating health insurance plans, including plans that provide coverage
for abortions. (2) Federal funding of insurance plans that provide abortions is an unprecedented
change in federal abortion funding policy. The Hyde Amendment, as passed each year
in the Labor Health and Human Services Appropriations bill, and the Federal Employee Health
Benefits Program, FEHBP, prohibit federal funds from subsidizing health insurance plans that
provide abortions. Under this new law, however, exchange participating health insurance plans
that provide abortions can receive federal funds. (3) The provision of federal funding for
health insurance plans that provide abortion coverage is nothing...

26-23H-2
Section 26-23H-2 Legislative Findings. (a) This state's statute criminalizing abortion,
Section 13A-13-7, has never been repealed. It has remained unenforceable as a result of the
U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973) and its progeny, which struck
down as unconstitutional a Texas statute criminalizing abortion and which effectively
repealed by implication and made unenforceable all other state statutes criminalizing abortion.
(b) On November 6, 2018, electors in this state approved by a majority vote a constitutional
amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901 declaring and affirming the public policy
of the state to recognize and support the sanctity of unborn life and the rights of unborn
children. The amendment made it clear that the Constitution of Alabama of 1901 does not include
a right to an abortion or require the funding of abortions using public funds. (c)
In present state law, Section 13A-6-1 defines a person for homicide purposes to include an...
