New: A #Texas Woman Died After the Hospital Said It Would be a “Crime” to Intervene in Her Miscarriage
Josseli Barnica is one of at least two pregnant Texas women who died after doctors delayed emergency care.
She’d told her husband that the medical team said it couldn’t act until the fetal heartbeat stopped.

There are so many ways Texas is wrong here, that it’s hard to fathom. As with Trump’s constant drumbeat of lies, that’s the point. It makes it hard to appreciate what’s happening, to call it wrong, and to do something about it.
Doctors are wrong, they know they’re wrong, to say they cannot intervene to save a pregnant woman’s life until the fetal heartbeat stops. That’s tantamount to murder.
