A safe and healthy pregnancy is a fundamental human right, but far too
many people in America — particularly Black women — lack the high-quality,
comprehensive care they need for themselves and their babies.
That’s why I’m proud to reintroduce the MOMMIES Act in partnership with
Senator Cory Booker. This transformative legislation expands Medicaid for
all birthing people and promotes community-based, holistic approaches to
maternity care.
[ [link removed] ]Together, we can make this bill a reality and further advance health
care justice. Will you add your name as a grassroots co-sponsor to the
MOMMIES Act to show your support for ensuring every pregnant person has
health care coverage?

The facts are clear: Our country is facing a maternal health crisis. The
United States has the highest maternal mortality rate in the developed
world. And for Black women, the danger is even greater: Black women are 4
times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications and twice as
likely to lose their child to premature death.
Birthing while Black should not be a death sentence. It’s past time for
bold action to address the disparate health outcomes for Black women and
all birthing people of color, improve care, and save lives.
[ [link removed] ]Expanding Medicaid for pregnant people is one of the most effective
ways to combat our maternal health crisis. Add your name to become a
grassroots co-sponsor of the MOMMIES Act and affirm that Black mamas
matter.
Thank you for being in this fight for health care justice with me.
In solidarity,
Ayanna Pressley
