Back to EpisodesAlabama Governor Signs Midwifery Bill
Description
Alabama Governor Kay Ivey signed House Bill 128, granting the State Board of Midwifery authority to accept grants and gifts. This bill, championed by State Representative Marilyn Lands, aims to improve midwifery practices in Alabama. Despite this victory, midwives still face challenges, as a bill to allow them to collect newborn screening data for home births was not even considered. The new law continues the push for better options in midwifery care.
