Sec. 2.

The legislature finds all of the following:

The state has a paramount interest in protecting all individuals.

If an abortion results in the live birth of a newborn, the newborn is a legal person for all purposes under the law.

A woman's right to terminate pregnancy ends when the pregnancy is terminated. It is not an infringement on a woman's right to terminate her pregnancy for the state to assert its interest in protecting a newborn whose live birth occurs as the result of an abortion.
