Lobbying at the State House
Today the kids and I went to the Massachusetts State House to lobby for passage of the midwifery bill designed to license Certified Professional Midwives and expand birthing options for women. After having an amazing homebirth with A, I feel passionate about providing more birthing choices for women and improving access to midwifery care, so it was great to be able to visit the State House, meet our legislators, and encourage deeper consideration of this bill.
And what an outstanding learning experience for M to see a real-life civics lesson!
