    Rep. Joe Kennedy III Retweeted MomsRising

    Black women are 243% more likely to die from pregnancy or childbirth related causes than white women. We can’t address solutions to #MaternalMortality without discussing solutions to the systemic racism buried deep within our nation’s health care system. #MaternalJusticehttps://twitter.com/MomsRising/status/1057060777461460992 …

    Q1: The U.S. has the worst maternal death rate of any developed country & racial disparities where Black mamas lose their lives at 3-4x the rate of white women. Can you share facts, figures, and statistics to help frame this issue? #MaternalJustice

        In 2014, the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination urged the US to eliminate racial disparities in the repro health field & collect data for #MaternalMortality - yet no systems exist. We need #MaternalJustice before more mothers fall btwn the cracks.

        It's an injustice of unacceptable proportion that the richest, most powerful, most innovative nation on earth would allow skin color to impact something as profoundly universal as pregnancy and childbirth. We can - and must - do better. #MaternalJustice

        To support diverse health care providers, we need communities where URMs are supported to deal with discrimination, and build a supportive community around those most often on the receiving end of biases, both implicit and overt. https://blogs.jwatch.org/general-medicine/index.php/2018/10/part-of-the-equation-but-not-equal/ … #MaternalJustice

        It's not just racism, its the underlying system of $$$ profiting from treating human misery giving us this extremely unaffordable system we have today. Most don't get treatment until they are unable to function because of high $$$ costs.

        There’s a direct link to poor nutrition, not race. This is pure race bait.

        I think you should do a quick google search and realize it is due to race not nutrition. There is racism imbedded in American healthcare.pic.twitter.com/c09yBSHLhX

        Failure to care for yourself is now racist and someone else’s fault? I can’t handle the dumb anymore. Y’all are devolving at this point.

        I find this hard to believe, seeing as how black women get seen and treated at the head of the line, just because the hospitals don't want a lawsuit...

        Then stop promoting abortion on them, which causes plenty of problems later in life and future pregnancies
