This approach doesn't truly help pregnant women. Giving legal rights to embryos and fetuses could increase CPS surveillance and put their rights at even greater risk.

Pregnant women should have more support, but it should not be tied to working with an agency that has the power to separate their families.

The facts in this case were plain as day: the law didn’t justify the charges or the threat of spending decades in prison for self-managing an abortion. Dismissing the case was the only logical outcome. We applaud the DA for making the right decision.

People shouldn’t lose their rights and bodily autonomy when they become pregnant ‼️ Pregnancy is not a crime, but the state often weaponizes it to control women. That’s why Pregnancy Justice is here — to advance and defend the rights of ALL pregnant people.

If you or someone you love is facing criminal charges related to pregnancy, contact us at [email protected]. We can’t take every case, but we may be able to help.

NEW DATA! We documented 902 cases where people were charged with crimes related to their pregnancy, pregnancy loss, or birth in the three years after Roe v. Wade was overturned.https://www.pregnancyjusticeus.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Fall-2026-Data-Update.pdf

Each case represents a pregnant person who was investigated and arrested. They may have needed healthcare, but were met with police instead of support. Many were likely jailed or separated from their babies.

Pregnancy criminalization is happening now, and we are still learning the full extent.

The truth is, we have a nationwide maternal health crisis that is impacting Black women most. Restrictive abortion laws are only making it worse. We need a world where people are fully supported in the decisions they make for themselves and their families, not forced to make desperate ones.
