Texas Maternal Mortality Committee Skips Reviewing Two Years Of Maternal Deaths


The Texas Maternal Mortality Committee has announced that it will not be reviewing any deaths in the two years after the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade and led to Texas passing one of the most restrictive abortion restrictions in the nation. 

The Committee will be meeting for the next time on December 6th, where it will begin reviewing maternal deaths in 2024. But, the Committee has announced that it will not go through and review the backlog of maternal deaths in 2022 and 2023, causing a public outcry.
