Thanks be to God, the internet, hard work and all of you; the Midwifery Modernization Act was signed into NY state law today by Governor Paterson. In 90 days, it will take effect. Whew! This was a long labor.
Thanks to one and all for your support. However you celebrate, do it with joy for mothers and their midwives.
May all babies be born into loving hands...

This is such great news! It was a hard battle at times and I am grateful for the hard work of so many that made this possible. A huge step for women's care and birthing choices in upstate New York! Many congratulations to you!
