It restricts abortion once a preborn child&#8217;s heartbeat is detected, usually at about six weeks, though the human heart begins beating at about 21 days after fertilization.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:<\/strong>\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/poll-public-support-texas-heartbeat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Poll shows strong public support for Texas Heartbeat Act, despite media outrage<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/governor.sd.gov\/doc\/ProhibitingMedicalAbortionsThroughTelemedicine.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bill<\/a> to ban the use of telemedicine to dispense the abortion pill mirrors an executive order from Noem that is set to go into effect on January 27. Just like the executive order, the bill would require that women who want to obtain an abortion via the abortion pill make four separate visits to the abortionist. The first visit would be an informed consent visit that must take place 24 hours before the abortion pill is taken. The woman would then have to take the first pill of the abortion pill regimen \u2014 mifepristone \u2014\u00a0while at the abortion facility and stay to be monitored. She must return 24 to 72 hours later to take the second pill \u2014 misoprostol \u2014 and stay to be monitored. She will then return 14 days later for a follow-up to ensure the abortion is complete.<\/p>\n<p>The bill has likely been introduced despite the executive order that accomplishes the same goal of banning telemedicine abortion because an executive order is not a binding law. If the bill becomes law, it will make the ban permanent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cEvery human life is unique and beautiful from the moment it is conceived. Every life is worthy of our protection, worthy of the right to live,\u201d said\u00a0Governor Noem. \u201cWe hope that this year\u2019s March for Life will be the last and that the Supreme Court will finally protect every unborn life.
