Where this section sits in the code
  1. OK Code
  2. Title 63

A. Any private office, freestanding outpatient clinic, or other

facility or clinic in which abortions, other than abortions

necessary to prevent the death of the pregnant female, are

performed, induced, prescribed for, or where the means for an

abortion are provided shall conspicuously post a sign in a location

defined in subsection C of this section so as to be clearly visible

to patients, which reads:

Notice: It is against the law for anyone, regardless of his or

her relationship to you, to force you to have an abortion. By

law, we cannot perform, induce, prescribe for, or provide you

with the means for an abortion unless we have your freely given

and voluntary consent. It is against the law to perform,

induce, prescribe for, or provide you with the means for an

abortion against your will. You have the right to contact any

local or state law enforcement agency to receive protection from

any actual or threatened physical abuse or violence.

There are public and private agencies willing and able to help

you carry your child to term, have a healthy pregnancy and a

healthy baby and assist you and your child after your child is

born, whether you choose to keep your child or place him or her

for adoption. The State of Oklahoma strongly encourages you to

contact them if you are pregnant.

B. The sign required pursuant to subsection A of this section

shall be printed with lettering that is legible and shall be at

least three-quarters-of-an-inch boldfaced type.

C. A facility in which abortions are performed, induced,

prescribed for, or where the means for an abortion are provided that

is a private office or a freestanding outpatient clinic shall post

the required sign in each patient waiting room and patient

consultation room used by patients on whom abortions are performed,

induced, prescribed for, or who are provided with the means for an

abortion. A hospital or any other facility in which abortions are

performed, induced, prescribed for, or where the means for an

abortion are provided that is not a private office or freestanding

outpatient clinic shall post the required sign in each patient

admission area used by patients on whom abortions are performed,

induced, prescribed for, or by patients who are provided with the

means for an abortion.
