(a) Notwithstanding any of the provisions of G.S. 90-21.81B, no person shall perform or attempt to perform an abortion upon a pregnant woman if the person has knowledge that the pregnant woman is seeking the abortion, in whole or in part, because of any of the following:

(1) The actual or presumed race or racial makeup of the unborn child.

(2) The sex of the unborn child.

(3) The presence or presumed presence of Down syndrome.

(b) Nothing in this section shall be construed as placing an affirmative duty on a physician to inquire as to whether the sex of the unborn child is a significant factor in the pregnant woman seeking the abortion. (2013-366, s. 3(a); 2023-14, s. 1.4(b).)
