"The leadership of Planned Parenthood Great Northwest says there will “absolutely be a legal battle” over a proposed new law that aims to restrict a minor’s ability to travel for abortion care if it is passed by the Idaho Senate this week.
House Bill 242, sponsored by Rep. Barbara Ehardt, R-Idaho Falls, creates a new section of Idaho law that defines “abortion trafficking” as a crime when an adult helps a minor seek an abortion in another state or helps a minor obtain a medication that will induce an abortion. A prior version of the bill would have placed the section of code under Idaho’s existing human trafficking law, but the new version creates a separate section under Idaho’s abortion laws for the trafficking offense.
Those who would violate the new law are subject to two to five years in prison, according to the bill text."
