It’s time to take action again! Last month, the House failed to pass key maternal health funding items in the state budget, but our fight is not over. Now, we turn to the State Senate, which finalizes their budget over the next week. Contact your State Senator right now to let them know we need funding for midwifery education, Neighborhood Birth Center, and the Center for Maternal Health Advancement.

It only takes 2 minutes to make your voice heard. Use our quick & easy form below. Add a brief personal message to help your email stand out!

TIPS:

  • Make sure you use your full street address for the most accurate legislator lookup; many towns are divided up into multiple districts.

  • Add a personal message (if you have time) to help your email stand out.

  • Share this action with household members, friends, neighbors, and family members anywhere in Massachusetts and ask them to take action too!
