Doctors and lawyers have testified that, under current laws, they often aren’t sure when they can legally intervene to protect a mother’s life. Fear of prosecution and unclear language leave women in danger, forcing doctors to hesitate in critical moments. We’ve already seen the consequences- Amber Nicole Thurman in Georgia suffered severe complications in 2022 after doctors delayed treatment out of fear. In 2023, Nevaeh Crain in Texas was denied care until it was too late. Now, with an executive order declaring life begins at conception, the uncertainty for doctors is only getting worse. When saving a mother’s life becomes a legal gray area, we have to ask- how did we get here?
