*taps mic* Have you heard of this birth accountability law? I call it a "Fuck You, Pay Me" bill. If states are going to force people to give birth, then pay for it. The Pro Birth Accountability Act would require that the state cover: ✅reasonable living, legal, medical, psychological, and psychiatric expenses directly related to prenatal, intrapartal, and postpartal periods; ✅the child's health care (including vision and dental) until age 18; ✅if the child is born with a disability, all related costs forever; ✅automatic eligibility for SNAP, TANF, and WIC with no reduction in benefits until the child is 18; ✅ if the pregnant person becomes disabled as a result of the pregnancy, all related costs forever; ✅child support, if the bio father is out of the picture; ✅college; ✅ automatic eligibility to participate in a program that would pair a pregnant person with a specially trained nurse to provide home visits from early pregnancy through the child’s second birthday. (‼️‼️‼️) The Pro-Birth Accountability Act is a phenomenal bill that should be replicated far and wide. Call your representatives and demand it.
