Black women deserve to survive childbirth. The Mama's First Act is legislation that could help make that a reality. Uduak from the Blavity Creator Collective just broke it all the way down. 🤰🏾 The bill would expand Medicaid to cover care from doulas, midwives, tribal midwives, and lactation support providers, services proven to reduce C-sections, decrease maternal anxiety, and improve outcomes for both mother and baby. Right now, most Black women on Medicaid cannot access these providers even though research shows they save lives. "Mothers are less than half of the population, but we give birth to 100% of it," said Rep. Alma Adams. "Congress needs to put Mamas First because our Mamas can't wait." Watch the full video. Share it with every mother, every caregiver, and every person who believes Black women deserve to survive bringing life into this world.
