The bill passed both chambers of the Illinois General Assembly and is expected to be signed by Governor JB Pritzker.
Illinois has nearly 100 crisis pregnancy centers that offer ultrasounds, pregnancy testing and STI medication. Critics say these centers use deceptive tactics to steer patients away from seeking abortion-related care.
Reset learns more about a bill that would allow patients to take legal action if they felt misled.
