History Made!

Governor Abigail Spanberger signed a bipartisan package of maternal‑health bills, known as the Momnibus, to strengthen care and support for mothers across Virginia.

The legislation aims to:
• Expand care for high‑risk pregnancies
• Increase access to maternal mental‑health screenings
• Improve tracking and reporting of unexpected, life‑threatening complications during pregnancy

“No mother should have to fear dying during or after childbirth… Today, we are taking decisive action to make sure more women across Virginia can get the care they need at all stages of pregnancy,” said Governor Spanberger.
