The proposed bill aims to provide civil and criminal immunity for any damage or death of an embryo during in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures. It stipulates that no legal action, suit, or criminal prosecution can be initiated against individuals or entities involved in providing or receiving IVF services, regardless of existing laws, including those outlined in Chapter 5 of Title 6 of the Code of Alabama 1975. This immunity is intended to apply retroactively to any relevant actions or omissions that are not currently under litigation.

Additionally, the bill limits damages against manufacturers of goods used in the IVF process to compensatory damages equivalent to the price paid for the affected IVF cycle. It also prohibits criminal prosecution against these manufacturers for any damage or death of an embryo. The language of the bill emphasizes its retroactive application and its remedial nature, ensuring that it addresses past actions as well as future cases. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
