SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds as follows:
            (1) In 2004, 839,226 abortions were reported to the Centers 
        for Disease Control and Prevention.
            (2) 48 percent of all pregnancies in America are 
        unintended. Excluding miscarriages, 54 percent of unintended 
        pregnancies end in abortion.
            (3) 57 percent of women who have abortions have incomes 
        below 200 percent of the poverty level.
            (4) ``Cannot afford a baby'' is the second most frequently 
        cited reason women choose to have an abortion; 73 percent of 
        women having abortions cited this reason as a contributing 
        factor.
            (5) This Act is an initiative to gather more complete 
        information about abortion, to reduce the abortion rate by 
        helping women carry their pregnancies to term and bear healthy 
        children, and by affirming the right of women to be fully 
        informed about their other options when they seek an abortion.
            (6) The initiative will work to support women facing 
        unplanned pregnancies, new parents and their children by 
        providing comprehensive measures for health care needs, 
        supportive services and helpful prenatal information and 
        postnatal services.

        TITLE V--DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION ON ABORTION SERVICES

SEC. 501. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION ON ABORTION SERVICES.

    (a) In General.--Health facilities that perform abortions in or 
affecting interstate commerce shall obtain informed consent from the 
pregnant woman seeking to have the abortion. Informed consent shall 
exist only after a woman has voluntarily completed or opted not to 
complete pre-abortion counseling sessions.
    (b) Accurate Information.--Counseling sessions under subsection (a) 
shall include the following information:
            (1) The probable gestational age and characteristics of the 
        unborn child at the time the abortion will be performed.
            (2) How the abortion procedure is performed.
            (3) Possible short-term and long-term risks and 
        complications of the procedure to be performed.
            (4) Options or alternatives to abortion, including, but not 
        limited to, adoption, and the resources available in the 
        community to assist women choosing these options.
            (5) The availability of post-procedure medical services to 
        address the risks and complications of the procedure.
    (c) Exception.--This section shall not apply when the pregnant 
woman is herself incapable, under State law, of making medical 
decisions. This section does not affect or modify any requirement under 
State law for making medical decisions for such patients.
    (d) Civil Remedies.--
            (1) Civil action.--Any female upon whom an abortion has 
        been performed or attempted without complying with the informed 
        consent requirements may bring a civil action in an appropriate 
        district court of the United States against the person who 
        performed the abortion in knowing or reckless violation of this 
        section for actual and punitive damages.
            (2) Certain authorities and requirements.--With respect to 
        an action under paragraph (1):
                    (A) The court may award attorney's fees to the 
                plaintiff if judgment is rendered in favor of the 
                plaintiff, and may award attorney's fees to the 
                defendant if judgment is rendered in favor of the 
                defendant and the court finds that the plaintiff's case 
                was frivolous and brought in bad faith.
                    (B) The court shall determine whether the anonymity 
                of the female involved will be preserved from public 
                disclosure if the female has not consented to her 
                identity being disclosed. If the female's identity is 
                to be shielded, the court shall issue an order sealing 
                the record and excluding individuals from the courtroom 
                to preserve her identity.
                    (C) In the absence of the female's written consent, 
                anyone other than a public official who brings the 
                action shall do so under a pseudonym.
            (3) Rule of construction.--Nothing in this subsection may 
        be construed to conceal the identity of the plaintiff or of the 
        witnesses from the defendant.
    (e) Severability.--If any provision of this section requiring 
informed consent for abortions is found unconstitutional, the 
unconstitutional provision is severable and the other provisions of 
this section remain in effect.
    (f) Preemption.--Nothing in this section shall prevent a State from 
enacting and enforcing additional requirements with respect to informed 
consent.

  TITLE VI--SERVICES TO PATIENTS RECEIVING POSITIVE TEST DIAGNOSIS OF 
         DOWN SYNDROME OR OTHER PRENATALLY DIAGNOSED CONDITIONS

SEC. 601. SERVICES TO PATIENTS RECEIVING POSITIVE TEST DIAGNOSIS FOR 
              DOWN SYNDROME OR OTHER PRENATALLY DIAGNOSED CONDITIONS.

    (a) Findings and Purposes.--
            (1) Findings.--The Congress finds as follows:
                    (A) Pregnant women who choose to undergo prenatal 
                genetic testing should have access to timely, 
                scientific, and nondirective counseling about the 
                conditions being tested for and the accuracy of such 
                tests, from health care professionals qualified to 
                provide and interpret these tests. Informed consent is 
                a critical component of all genetic testing.
                    (B) A recent, peer-reviewed study and two reports 
                from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on 
                prenatal testing found a deficiency in the data needed 
                to understand the epidemiology of prenatally diagnosed 
                conditions, to monitor trends accurately, and to 
                increase the effectiveness of health intervention.
            (2) Purposes.--It is the purpose of this section, after the 
        diagnosis of an unborn child with Down syndrome or other 
        prenatally diagnosed conditions, to--
                    (A) increase patient referrals to providers of key 
                support services to assist parents in the care, or 
                placement for adoption, of a child with Down syndrome, 
                or other prenatally diagnosed conditions, as well as to 
                provide up-to-date, science-based information about 
                life-expectancy and development potential for a child

  TITLE IX--IMPROVING SERVICES FOR PREGNANT WOMEN WHO ARE VICTIMS OF 
            DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, AND STALKING

SEC. 901. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds as follows:
            (1) Pregnant and recently pregnant women are more likely to 
        be victims of homicide than to die of any other causes, and 
        evidence exists that a significant proportion of all female 
        homicide victims are killed by their intimate partners.
            (2) A 2001 study published by the Journal of the American 
        Medical Association found that murder is the number one cause 
        of death among pregnant women.
            (3) Research suggests that injury-related deaths, including 
        homicide and suicide, account for approximately one-third of 
        all maternal mortality cases, while medical reasons make up the 
        rest. Homicide is the leading cause of death overall for 
        pregnant women, followed by cancer, acute and chronic 
        respiratory conditions, motor vehicle collisions and drug 
        overdose, peripartum and postpartum cardiomyopthy, and suicide.

        young children under age 5 get crucial health and nutrition 
        benefits from the WIC Program.

        in between $1.92 and $4.21 in Medicaid savings for newborns and

        birth weight and fetal mortality, reduce anemia, and enhance 
        the nutritional quality of the diet of mothers and children.

        services include nutrition assessment, counseling and

        promotion, prenatal and pediatric health care referrals and 
        follow-up, spousal and child abuse referral, drug and alcohol 
        abuse referral, immunization screening, assessment and 
        referral, and a host of other services for mothers and
