Second Chance for Moms Act

This bill would change the label on mifepristone (often called the abortion pill) and set up a 24/7 hotline. The label would have to say that taking natural progesterone may counteract mifepristone’s effects and could raise the chance a pregnancy continues. It would also say that the American Society for Reproductive Medicine has found natural progesterone to be safe in the first trimester, and it would include a phone number for the new hotline. The hotline would give information and make referrals only to providers who offer “abortion pill reversal” services. Mifepristone is a drug approved to end a pregnancy through 10 weeks when used with misoprostol.

• Who is affected: Patients considering or taking mifepristone; drug makers; health providers offering “abortion pill reversal” services .
• What changes: A new warning and hotline number must appear on mifepristone’s label; a national, toll‑free, 24/7 hotline must operate and refer only to “abortion pill reversal” providers .
• When: The label requirement would start 6 months after the bill becomes law.
