Texas Ends 81st Legislative Session

By firstamendmentblogger

ADVERTISEMENTS

_573866_pregnant_300 The good news:  lawmakers passed a bill to restrict the use of shackles on pregnant inmates during labor and delivery.

The bad news:  its 2009, and lawmakers just now passed a bill  to prevent shackling inmates during delivery.

HB 3653 is awaiting the Governor's signature.  Here's hoping he'll sign it since the measure can't be resubmitted until the state legislature reconvenes . . . in 2011.
