§ 15.1-19-06 — Abortion referrals

1. No person while acting in an official capacity as an employee or agent of a school
district may refer a student to another person, agency, or entity for the purpose of
obtaining an abortion. This provision does not extend to private communications
between the employee or agent and a child of the employee or agent.
2. Between normal childbirth and abortion, it is the policy of the state of North Dakota that
normal childbirth is to be given preference, encouragement, and support by law and by
state action. A person acting in an official capacity as an employee or agent of a school
district, between normal childbirth and abortion, shall give preference, encouragement,
and support to normal childbirth. No public school in the state may endorse or support
any program that, between normal childbirth and abortion, does not give preference,
encouragement, and support to normal childbirth. No public school of the state may
authorize a presentation to students that, between normal childbirth and abortion, does
not give preference, encouragement, and support to normal childbirth.
