Why the model tagged it this way: The bill substantively addresses abortion via expanded definitions of pregnancy-related deaths (including any pregnancy outcome), creation of a maternal data registry covering pregnancies and births, a Medicaid doula services pilot for pregnant women, and a disparity study on Black maternal mortality; all fall under abortion/other except the definitional change which triggers personhood-ivf due to fetal inclusion in mortality review. No provisions address firearms, transgender issues, immigration enforcement, or custody/support. Direction follows the axis: data/study/reporting is neutral; doua
