Lauren Underwood For Congress [[link removed]]
Hi John — Last week, the House majority was officially called in Republicans’ favor.
Now, I’m no stranger to working across the aisle to get things accomplished. Since I was first elected, I’ve had ten bills signed into law — four under President Biden and six under President Trump. But I’ll be honest, it will be a lot tougher to get our priorities across the finish line with the gavel in Kevin McCarthy’s hand.
That’s why these next few weeks are so important. There’s still so much we can accomplish in the final few weeks of the 117th Congress, and one of my top priorities is passing my Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act to save moms’ lives.
The United States has the worst maternal mortality rate in the developed world. This rate is only rising, and it’s driven by far higher mortality rates among Black mothers and birthing people of color.
Today, Black women are three to four times more likely than white women to die from pregnancy-related complications. These alarming statistics are an urgent call to action that we have a responsibility to answer.
My Momnibus package will finally reverse the rising trend of maternal mortality, save the lives of moms, and close racial and ethnic disparities in maternal health outcomes.
Too many families have lost mothers, daughters, and sisters to our nation’s maternal health crisis — and my Momnibus package is the solution. Moms can’t wait, and it’s time for Congress to step up and pass it before the end of the year.
If you agree, add your name to my petition calling on Congress to pass the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act right away. [[link removed]]
