US House members want answers on Texas’ decision to not review maternal deaths after near-total abortion ban
SUMMARY: Members of the U.S. House Committee on Oversight are requesting a briefing from Texas’ maternal mortality committee about its decision to skip reviewing pregnancy-related deaths from 2022 and 2023, following the state’s abortion ban. The committee chose to focus on deaths in 2024 instead. Critics, including Rep. Jasmine Crockett, argue that this decision ignores deaths during a critical period and undermines efforts to reduce maternal mortality. They also express concerns that the state’s abortion restrictions are contributing to rising maternal deaths. The Texas maternal mortality committee has been criticized for its handling of this data amid increasing concerns.
