Christine Fields should be alive today. José Perez is raising three children alone because of repeat medical error. The Grieving Families Act would hold medical institutions accountable and make all New Yorkers safer.

Today, we joined with advocates to tackle the maternal health crisis in the Bronx, which has disproportionately impacted Black and Latina women. With the release of our report, we are calling for a Bronx-based birthing center. Bronx mothers cannot and will not wait any longer!

The Grieving Families Act will provide justice to those affected by wrongful death by updating NY’s law to account for grief & anguish.
Christine Fields died 52 days ago at Woodhull. Her partner, Jose Perez, asked for a meeting with @govKathyHochul which was ignored.
