SB301 would redefine 'persons' in Alabama law to include all humans from fertilization and implantation.
It changes the legal definition of 'persons' in the Alabama Code to include any human being from fertilization and implantation into the womb. Because many laws use the term 'persons,' this could affect how those laws are applied to people from conception. The change would take effect on the first day of the third month after the bill is passed and Governor signs it (or when it becomes law by other means).
