“Federal law has put thousands of women on anti-addiction medications into an impossible bind: Give up your treatment or risk losing your baby.” This is how family policing works: it weaponizes children to surveil, coerce & punish marginalized people. nytimes.com/2023/06/29/mag…

Black & brown women are the flesh and blood of this country and we deserve to be heard. We deserve lawmakers who will take care of us, and who will fight for our reproductive freedoms!

New study! Unnecessary inductions of labor don’t improve outcomes. Let’s focus on evidence-based approaches such as culturally concordant midwifery care!

Even though midwifery care yields the best birth outcomes, reduces health inequities, and could save the U.S. $34M per year, the underpayment stems from a legacy of pay injustice where midwives, overwhelmingly women caring for women, work for less. bit.ly/3qR2OWF

Babies love their midwives. More Black babies should know what it is to be loved and cherished by a village from the day they were born. #BirthEquity
