Last Thursday was a significant moment in our campaign as Lauren testified before the House Veterans Affairs Committee on her bipartisan legislation, the Maternal Health for Veterans Act , marking the first congressional hearing on Momnibus legislation this year.

As the lead sponsor of the bill and Co-Chair of the Black Maternal Health Caucus, Lauren advocated for the profound impact it will have on veterans and their families, urging the Committee to pass it without delay.

This moment is thanks to your ongoing support, John, which has fueled the resources needed to push Lauren and the Momnibus forward. Will you help us keep up our efforts to gain even more traction and ensure this vital legislation becomes law? Donate $2 to help us get the second bill from the Momnibus passed now:

Our veterans deserve the best care, especially during pregnancy and postpartum periods. That's why Lauren introduced the Maternal Health for Veterans Act to reauthorize critical investments in maternal health for veterans from the Protecting Moms Who Served Act , the first Momnibus bill to be signed into law.

Maternal mortality rates in the U.S. are alarming. The numbers speak for themselves: pregnant women and new moms in the U.S. are dying at a higher rate than any other high-income nation in the world with disparities disproportionately affecting black women. It's unacceptable, especially when eight out of ten maternal deaths are preventable.

That's why the passage of the Maternal Health for Veterans Act and every bill in Lauren's Momnibus Act is crucial. It will make critical investments to improve maternal health nationwide and address the discriminatory aspects of this crisis.

Your support has brought us this far, but we cannot stop now. Donate $2 or more today to help get the Maternal Health for Veterans Act over the finish line and continue fighting for our moms, our veterans, and our communities >>>
