Bill overview
The Births in Custody Reporting Act of 2025 (BCRA) requires states with correctional facilities to report anonymized data to the Attorney General regarding pregnant inmates and those who give birth while incarcerated. This data includes details about pregnancy tests, prenatal care, pregnancy outcomes, restraints used, postpartum care, and placement in restrictive housing. States must comply with these reporting requirements within 120 days of enactment, with potential funding reductions for non-compliance. The Attorney General will also conduct a study to improve treatment and examine the factors contributing to adverse pregnancy outcomes in custody and submit a report to Congress.
