Evidence

Watson Coleman announced the Traumatic Births Research Act, a bill to support research on traumatic birth experiences and postpartum PTSD, and to assess whether midwife-led care improves maternal outcomes.

This is a direct same-term legislative move matching the promise closely, but it is only an introduction and does not by itself show enactment or completion.

The homepage's latest-news feed shows June 8, June 3, and May 29 items, with no visible follow-up on the traumatic-births bill in the current feed.

In the current site snapshot, there is no visible later action on this claim after the May 15 introduction, so the commitment still appears unresolved beyond the initial bill filing.

never same_term A for effort

Watson Coleman introduced the Traumatic Births Research Act on 2026-05-15, which is a serious same-term legislative attempt that matches the promise closely. However, the evidence only shows bill introduction and no enactment, authorization, or later completion, so the promised outcome was not delivered.
