How will this effect living wills?
The Texas Heartbeat Act is an act of the Texas Legislature. It was introduced as Senate Bill 8 and House Bill 1515 on March 11, 2021, and was signed into law by Texas Governor Greg Abbott on May 19, 2021. The Texas law relies on enforcement by private individuals through civil lawsuits, rather than by the government through criminal or civil enforcement.
The Human Life Protection Amendment is a citizen-initiated constitutional amendment proposal, that after qualifying for ballot placement must be approved by 60% of Florida voters to pass. Our proposed amendment does not contain any language that speaks to enforcement by private individuals through civil lawsuits.
