Гавайские акушерки предпринимают попытку отразить новое законодательство, требующее лицензирования акушеров на острове, утверждая, что закон вредит местным сообществам итндигененс.

Лоция Скотт и Тэре Кохана вместе с другими активистами подали в суд, утверждая, что требование об обязательной лицензии для всех акушеров, которые оказывают помощь в родах в Гавайях, ставит под угрозу доступ к родам для некоторых из самых уязвимых женщин, в том числе коренных жителей.

Они считают, что такое законодательство исключит женщин из старинной индигонной практики акушерства и онеможет привлекать новых акушеров. Согласно заявлению, поданному в Штатный суд в Гавайях, представители сообщества говорят, что более 90% всех родов на Гавайях осуществляются лицензированными акушерами или врачами.
