SB 883 - This act requires in-state abortion facilities or family planning agencies to provide specified printed materials when providing to a woman considering an abortion the name, address, telephone number, or website of an abortion provider who or which is located out of state. If the provision of the abortion provider's contact information is not made in person to the woman, the abortion facility or family planning agency shall offer the printed materials to the woman and if she chooses, send the materials to her through the U.S. mail at no cost to the woman.

This act is substantially similar to SCS/SB 302 (2015).
