The Heartbeat Protection Act of 2025 aims to restrict abortions by prohibiting the procedure once a fetal heartbeat is detectable. The main objective of this legislation is to protect what it defines as the life of an unborn child by ensuring that abortions cannot be performed without first checking for a heartbeat. Key provisions of the Act include a requirement for physicians to check for a fetal heartbeat before performing an abortion. If a heartbeat is detected, the physician is prohibited from proceeding with the abortion.
