There is so much more to unravel, and we'll be honest: we're still playing catchup + trying to manage our daily helpline (folks still need care and funding TODAY, no matter what the General Assembly is doing). We expect a Senate vote today and a House vote tomorrow.

Centering Black women's scholarship & advocacy is essential in the fight for advancing reproductive health for Black Mamas & Birthing People. We want to spotlight some of the dynamic scholars in our Alliance advancing the sexual, maternal, & reproductive fields. #BMHW23

The Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act of 2021 did not receive bipartisan support in the 117th congress and therefore wasn’t passed into law. We encourage you to call your representatives and advise them to reintroduce the Momnibus Act S.346/H.R.959 #BMHW2023 #BMHW23
