Amend the bill, as and if amended, SECTION 2, Section 44-41-610, by adding a subsection to read:
(15) "Multifetal pregnancy" means a pregnancy in which there exists two or more fetuses.
Amend the bill further, SECTION 2, Section 44-41-640, by adding a subsection to read:
(F) It is not a violation of Section 44-41-630 if an abortion is performed or induced on a pregnant woman who has a multifetal pregnancy, and in reasonable medical judgement, reducing the total number of fetuses by one or more is necessary to reduce the risk of maternal or perinatal morbidity or mortality.
