I love my home state of TEXAS. I am definitely full of Texas pride. We have Texas barbecue, Texas, hospitality, and of course, the Texas music scene! Our state definitely has some issues to improve on, mainly access to maternity care. We have a HUGE state and 50% of our counties are maternity care deserts. It’s a vast vast Land to cover! Texas has also received a lot of criticism regarding its heartbeat law originally named SB8, which was passed in 2021. Commentaries since then have stated that OBGYNs are leaving the state by the droves! Is that accurate? A new publication from JAMA network open (April 21, 2025) seems to contradict these commentaries. Listen in for detail details.
