“Around the country, anti-abortion prosecutors are targeting women who have experienced miscarriages and stillbirths, adding to the mental and physical burden associated with pregnancy loss. In Wisconsin, Republican politicians in the state capitol are circulating legislation to criminalize Wisconsinites for improperly disposing of a miscarriage. 

“Today, I am introducing legislation to protect Wisconsinites from the latest anti-choice attack on reproductive freedom. 

Wisconsin should be a welcoming place where everyone can thrive and get the healthcare they need without political interference or being investigated by law enforcement. The Pregnancy Loss Protection Act ensures this is a reality and protects Wisconsinites, ensuring they receive the dignity to heal from pregnancy loss without fear of retribution or prosecution.”
