From the actual text of the bill, linked in the second paragraph of the article linked in the OP's post:

"20-16-1803. Ban on dismemberment abortion:
(d) This subchapter does not prohibit an abortion by any other method for any reason, including rape or incest."

Note: The only method addressed by the bill is dismemberment abortion.

Even if you didn't read the bill, the twitter quote from Mayberry, included in the article linked by OP, negates the need for this discussion:

"Woman is never held liable. No civil damages possible for someone guilty of criminal conduct. Read the bill. Protecting babies, not rapists"

Headline is dead wrong.
