Did you know that Black Women are 3 to 4 times more likely to die during pregnancy or childbirth in the U.S? There are so many horror stories from Black women. Even stories from those who are wealthy and famous like Serena Williams and Beyoncé.

Contact your legislator to urge them to co-sponsor the MOMMA ACT put forth by @kamalaharris (link in bio)

“The U.S. maternal mortality rate is the highest amongst our peer nations and Black women are three to four times more likely to die from pregnancy or childbirth-related complications compared to white women. And we know that the majority of these deaths can be prevented.

If passed, the Mothers and Offspring Mortality & Morbidity Awareness (MOMMA) Act will reverse American's rising maternal mortality rate and address the deeply rooted racism that is killing Black mamas.” - Forward Together
