美国联邦政府尚未对虐待孕妇的医院处以罚款,尽管有更严格的执法承诺。 U.S. federal government has not fined hospitals for mistreating pregnant women despite stricter enforcement promise.
美联社的分析显示,美国联邦政府很少因医院违反授权急诊室稳定遇难病人的法律而惩罚医院。 An Associated Press analysis reveals that the U.S. federal government seldom penalizes hospitals for breaching a law that mandates emergency rooms to stabilize patients in distress. 尽管拜登政府承诺自2022年以来将更严格地执行,但对100多起涉及虐待孕妇的案件没有处以罚款。 Despite the Biden administration's promise of stricter enforcement since 2022, no fines have been issued for over 100 cases involving mistreatment of pregnant women. 批评者指出调查缓慢和人员不足是妨碍有效执法的障碍,在堕胎禁令加剧的孕产妇健康危机中引起关切。 Critics cite slow investigations and inadequate staffing as barriers to effective enforcement, raising concerns amid a maternal health crisis exacerbated by abortion bans.
