House Resolution No. by Representative Mandie Landry directs the Louisiana Department of Health to compile and submit a report containing specific statistical information regarding women's health to the House and Senate committees on health and welfare by February 1, 2025. This directive comes in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade and led to the enactment of Act No. 545, restricting abortion-related healthcare services in Louisiana. The resolution highlights concerns about the impact of these legislative changes on maternal healthcare and outcomes, particularly regarding the care provided to expectant mothers.

The report is expected to include various statistics from the past two years, such as rates of full-term pregnancies, miscarriages, stillbirths, maternal and infant mortality, as well as Medicaid and private insurance costs associated with pregnancies. Additionally, it will cover sexually transmitted infection rates and domestic violence statistics for pregnant women, along with the average income of the women included in the data. This comprehensive analysis aims to provide lawmakers with critical insights into the state of women's health in Louisiana following recent legal and legislative changes.
