Why This Matters

This bill aims to ensure that government agencies use traditional terms like 'mother' and 'pregnant woman' instead of 'birthing person' in their documents. It matters because it reflects a specific viewpoint on language related to motherhood and pregnancy.

If you are a pregnant woman or mother, official documents will use terms you may find more familiar and traditional.
