In a time when too many pregnant women face a cruel choice between debt or abortion, the Supporting Healthy Moms and Babies Act in the U.S. Senate and U.S. House are bold bipartisan moves to support mothers and families, because life shouldn’t come with a price tag.
Pregnant women in the U.S. often lack real and effective choice when making decisions about birth. Whether pro-life or pro-choice, we should all agree that no woman should feel coerced into choosing abortion as her only or most cost-effective option.
Making birth free transcends politics and empowers mothers.
When the costs of pregnancy, birth, and post-natal care are exorbitantly high, many couples feel they can’t afford to start or grow their families.
To change the future, we need a new model, a better paradigm: Birth in the United States of America should be free.
We're taking our message to the halls of government and calling for a new day for birth in America.
