Our coverage of the delayed maternal mortality report and what is missing from it:

Lawmakers Suspect Political Influence.And one Texan says the body’s decision “retriggered” the pain of losing his wife, who counts among the preventable deaths that soon followed the state’s abortion bans.

Texas is delaying its typical September 1 release of maternal mortality data until December 1, conveniently timed to be after the midterm election. Recent reports have shown a sharp rise in ectopic pregnancy deaths after the abortion ban went into effect. www.austinchronicle.com/news/texas-p...

A truly horrific account of the huge increase in maternal deaths in Texas following drastic changes in abortion rules. The ignorance & criminal negligence of those in charge are beyond words. Racists, women haters & likely Epstein friends seem to be the ones in charge in Texas. Hell on earth!!!😡🤬:(
