We hope Maryland will make the right choice by dropping this unfounded prosecution and upholding Ms. Akers’ lawfully protected rights.

Some good news: The Maryland Supreme Court has overturned a conviction for stillbirth. This ruling will be used across the country to fight against the criminalization of pregnancy loss. The state can't use actions during pregnancy to criminalize people for their birth outcomes‼️

In another attack against pregnant people, a Louisiana grand jury has indicted a New York doctor for prescribing abortion medication. Abortion pills are safe and widely used to access care. This prosecution should alarm anyone who is concerned about reproductive freedom.

And a sad reminder that pregnancy criminalization usually begins in a hospital setting. Medical professionals and family regulation workers are OFTEN the ones to report pregnant people to law enforcement.

“Ms. Watts' lawsuit is the exactly right response to those who would use the criminal legal system to punish pregnant people for the nonexistent crime of experiencing a miscarriage.”. YES. We're proud of Brittany for going after the accountability she deserves.

GOOD FOR HER: Brittany Watts, the Ohio woman wrongfully prosecuted for 'abuse of a corpse' after flushing her miscarriage, is suing. What's more, her lawyers allege that a police officer and two nurses conspired to fabricate evidence against her. Link in bio

Targeting an unhoused woman in labor instead of the root cause of homelessness isn't it. This is the intersection of pregnancy and homelessness, and neither should involve a law enforcement response.
