The bill itself states that it will be illegal in Colorado to "deny, restrict, interfere with or discriminate against an individual's fundamental right to use or refuse contraception or to continue a pregnancy and give birth or to have an abortion," while adding that "a fertilized egg, embryo or fetus does not have independent or derivative rights under the laws of the state."
