Pregnancy Injustice, a nonprofit organization that fights for the rights of pregnant people, released a report in October showing that Alabama arrested more pregnant women than any other state from June 2022 to June 2024. Most of the arrests involve the use of drugs.

I wonder if there's some kind of generational record for most consecutive lives ruined by the Drug War? Just a family that's had the most people harassed by police, father to daughter to mother to son, straight back to the Nixon Era or earlier.
