FEDERAL ADVOCACY DAY
Today, I met with lawmakers in Washington D.C. in support of policies that would improve the lives of moms, babies and families across our nation.
⠀
I’m honored to be a voice on behalf of so many families who need our support.
⠀
When speaking to Congressional Representatives and Senators, I explained why I gathered my community to march for change, and asked them to support policies that will improve the health of moms and babies and create #BlanketChange and #BirthEquity4All
Rates of preterm birth, a leading cause of infant death, are at a 15-year high in the U.S. and maternal mortality and morbidity is far too common. We must do more to protect our nation’s moms and babies—and we know that passing legislation that priorities their health can make all the difference.
