Of course. What obgyn would want to practice in such a misogynistic State?

Abbott knows how to fix it though. Just stop reporting those as being pregnancy related and list them as something else like windmill cancer or TDS and the numbers of pregnant or post-partum women dying will drop quickly.🤪

The Republicans don’t care about women dying because we are just replaceable “vessels.”

They aren’t saving babies in Texas, they are murdering women.

When a new policy kills more of the living than before that policy, you don't need to resort to any religious principles or values to know that it is a worse situation.

And if GOP cuts Medicaid even more will die..
41% of US births were paid for by Medicaid in 2021…👇👇 And 26% of children insured under CHIPS that would not have had any insurance coverage..
