Women arrested for natural miscarriages is not okay, put protections in place!

 A woman who experiences a miscarriage has already endured an immense physical and emotional trauma. Criminalizing this deeply personal event compounds the suffering and represents a gross violation of reproductive rights. Miscarriages occur naturally and arresting women for an unintended pregnancy loss is not only unconscionable but sets a dangerous precedent of policing women's bodies. I urge you to take immediate action to protect women's fundamental freedoms and prevent such injustices from occurring. Women deserve compassion and access to quality healthcare, not criminalization during one of the most difficult experiences they may face.
