“Texas lawmakers cannot make informed maternal health policy without fully examining why pregnant and postpartum Texans are dying. The 2022 and 2023 cases cover an especially important period because they can help us understand maternal health after the state's abortion bans took effect. Without those reviews, we are missing critical evidence needed to identify preventable deaths and evaluate state policy.”
What Kari White has said
“As researchers who study women's reproductive health policy in Texas, we know the importance of timely reporting of maternal mortality data. It is essential for transparency, accountability and public trust.”
