NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - Two Tennessee lawmakers have introduced legislation that would create a $1 million fine or “damages award” in certain cases involving abortion-inducing drugs sent into the state.
Under House Bill 1 and Senate Bill 2, a patient or other wrongful death beneficiary would have to prove that a defendant sent an abortion-inducing drug to the patient in Tennessee by courier, delivery or mail service and that the drug caused the death of an unborn child.
The proposal is sponsored by Rep. Gino Bulso, R-Brentwood, and Sen. Joey Hensley, R-Hohenwald. It would amend Tennessee’s law over damages.
The lawmakers previously sponsored a 2025 proposal that sought to prohibit the mailing or delivery of abortion-inducing drugs into Tennessee and impose $5 million in damages under certain circumstances.
In 2022, Gov. Bill Lee signed a law restricting the delivery of abortion pills by mail.
