Proposed Constitutional Amendment
Protection of Medical Autonomy and Standards of Reproductive Accountability Amendment
Section 1.
The right of an individual to a confidential and autonomous patient-provider relationship shall be inviolable. No law enforcement agency, officer, or agent thereof shall participate in, interfere with, investigate, surveil, or regulate any lawful act or communication between a patient and a licensed healthcare provider regarding diagnosis, treatment, medication, surgery, therapy, or any other form of healthcare delivery.
Section 2.
The regulation, restriction, or interdiction of prescriptions, medications, medical procedures, or healthcare services shall never be subject to law enforcement authority or intervention. All oversight of medical practices shall be conducted exclusively through civilian regulatory and licensing boards composed of qualified medical professionals.
Section 3.
The right to access abortion care shall be maintained as rare, legal, and inconvenient, administered exclusively at the state level. Each state shall establish and maintain a designated precision team of licensed surgeons and support staff whose sole duty is to perform abortion procedures. If the demand for abortion care exceeds the logistical capacity of these designated teams, it shall be recognized not as a failure of access, but as an indicator of a systemic failure in sexual education, responsibility, or social policy, requiring corrective, non-medical interventions.
Section 4.
The manufacture, prescription, sale, or administration of hormonal birth control methods for women, including but not limited to oral contraceptives, injectable contraceptives, hormonal intrauterine devices (IUDs), patches, and implants, shall be prohibited nationwide.
Section 5.
No individual shall be permitted to undergo sterilization procedures, including but not limited to tubal ligation, vasectomy, or any other permanent alteration of reproductive capacity, prior to attaining the age of twenty-six (26) years, unless:
- (a) The procedure is deemed medically necessary to preserve life or prevent grave, imminent harm as determined by two independent licensed physicians; or
- (b) The individual obtains notarized parental or legal guardian consent if under the age of twenty-six (26).
Section 6.
Congress and the States shall have the power to enforce, through appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
