In OK, which had 4 bans at the time, @P4HR @OKRepro @ReproRights research found that no hospital staff were able to articulate clear policies for emergency obstetric care to let clinicians to make decisions based on their clinical judgement and patients’ stated needs.

In Oklahoma, our groundbreaking 2023 report w/ @ReproRights & @OKRepro showed that hospitals could not provide pregnant patients with info about access to abortion in case of a life-threatening mishap, a clear human rights violation. phr.org/our-work/resources/o…

This judgment ends a binding agreement with the Oklahoma Attorney General's office not to enforce SB 613, pending resolution of plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction. SB 613 is now in effect.

"We are appealing this decision that is completely out of step with all other federal trial courts and that ignores the overwhelming evidence that gender-affirming medical care is safe and effective evidence-based care."

TODAY—we're in an interim study for the @OKHouseofReps to address how criminally charging pregnant/postpartum people with substance use disorder affects the lives & health of mothers, newborns, & families. The laws need to change.

Our new report found almost 80% of all pregnancy-related arrests happen in just 5 southern states. AL leads the charge.
The harm of pregnancy criminalization falls hardest on those already marginalized by class & race. Check your state: pregnancyjusticeus.org/data-… #PregnancyJustice

These results reflect how Oklahoma’s abortion bans threaten the health of pregnant people and violate their human rights, and impede the ability of clinicians to fulfil their professional and ethical obligations. Urgent action is needed to end this health and human rights crisis
Oklahoma Call for Reproductive Justice retweeted
As the complaint notes, our @P4HR research with @OKRepro and @ReproRights found that not a single OK hospital seemed able to articulate clear, consistent policies for emergency OB care to allow clinicians to make decisions based solely on their clinical judgement & patient needs.

U.S. state #abortion bans cause confusion that endanger lives. This week, our partner @ReproRights filed an HHS complaint citing our joint research report in OK to challenge a hospital's denial of life-saving emergency care under EMTALA. More here: phr.org/our-work/resources/o…
In March 2023, Jaci Statton was denied life-saving medical care by a hospital in Oklahoma as a result of the state’s #abortion ban. Our partners @ReproRights have petitioned @HHS to investigate this refusal. [THREAD] xitter.cf/ReproRights/status/170…

Jaci's experience is another example how OK's punitive abortion laws cause confusion about clinicians’ ability to provide life-saving care during obstetric emergencies, reflecting findings from our report w/ @ReproRights & @OKRepro phr.org/our-work/resources/o…

We are so glad that Cherie is coming home but our hearts are broken that she was forced to spend seven years caged. Solidarity with everyone incarcerated for pregnancy outcomes, a problem that is especially horrible in Oklahoma. None of us are truly free until all of us are free
Oklahoma Call for Reproductive Justice retweeted
Cherie's sentence isn't unique. Prosecutors continue to ignore medical science to send people to prison for losing pregnancies. The surveilling & criminalization of pregnancy must stop.
Thank you @caryaspinwall & @marshallproject for uplifting her story: themarshallproject.org/2023/….

It's never too late for prosecutors to rethink their approach to criminalizing pregnancy. Thank you to our partners @SRZLawFirm and Clay Curtis of Overman Legal Group for their work in getting Cherie's sentence modified.

Cherie Mason was sentenced to 12 years in prison for experiencing a stillbirth in OK. After serving 7 years, we're thrilled she'll be released early!
While this is a victory, Cherie never should've been charged. We're infuriated she lost time to an unfounded, unjust prosecution.
