W/ Judge Jones striking down Georgia’s LIFE Act (HB481, 2019), the topic of #PrenatalChildSupport has, once again, returned to the media discourse, due to §5 of the act. Unfortunately, authors of the articles on HB481 are doing a disservice by being unfamiliar w/ the topic.

Here is an excerpt of the Act & the resulting Official Code of Georgia Annotated § 19-6-15(a.1)(2), for reference.

The typical discussion is that Georgia had a wild, new idea of allowing a pregnant woman to collect child support for her unborn child.

There are multiple problems w/ the media reports:
* #PrenatalChildSupport isn’t a new concept
* Georgia already had such requirements
* OCGA § 19-6-15(a.1)(2) was simply meant to clarify what already existed for the state.
