This bill amends Title 42 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes regarding the enforcement of foreign judgments. Specifically, it modifies Section 4306(b) to clarify the process for filing foreign judgments in the courts of common pleas. The amendment stipulates that a copy of any foreign judgment, authenticated as required, may be filed and treated as a local judgment, establishing a lien from the date of filing and subject to the same enforcement procedures.

However, the bill introduces a significant limitation by stating that courts of common pleas in Pennsylvania shall not have the authority to enforce or satisfy foreign judgments related to the provision or delivery of reproductive health care services. The term "reproductive health care services" is defined within the bill to encompass a range of medical services related to the human reproductive system, including those concerning pregnancy and contraception. This act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
