View Amendment Current Amendment: 102 to Bill 474

Reps. King and Bamberg propose the following amendment (LC-474.SA0383H):

Amend the bill, as and if amended, SECTION 2, by adding a Section to read:

Section 44-41-750.  If a woman is the victim of a sexual assault on private property abutting a public beach along a South Carolina coast, and the assault results in a pregnancy for which the woman is denied access to an abortion due to time limits, then that property on which the assault occurred must be seized by the State. The value of the property must be paid to the woman who was assaulted, became pregnant as a result of the assault, and was denied an abortion due to time limits. The property then must be condemned, and any buildings or structures razed. The land immediately must be turned over to a conservation land trust and no further structures built on the property for perpetuity.
