Every baby deserves a strong start. The #FAMILYAct would mean families can take time to bond with and care for their babies after birth or adoption and in times of need. #ThinkBabiesAndAct today. #CareCantWait

Maternal health equity ensures that every person giving birth has a safe & healthy experience & has the opportunity to watch their child grow up and thrive. Tell Congress to pass the Black Maternal Health #Momnibus Act. action.momsrising.org/sign/BMHC_Momn… #ThisBarbie #MaternalJustice
I'm honored to be here today in support of Momnibus along with my colleagues from @Family_Connects.

The #Momnibus would comprehensively address the clinical and non-clinical causes of maternal mortality, morbidity, and disparities in the United States.
This story, and so many other similar stories, are why I've introduced the Kira Johnson Act in Congress. Now is the time to close the Black maternal health gap. Black moms matter, and we need culturally competent policies that improve care and save lives.
