Friday was unbelievable.
I was invited out to DC by the founder of Maha, to meet with Dr Dorothy fink, Admiral Brian Christine, and his team.
I had written a position statement to secretary Kennedy that was delivered so graciously right to his email, and this was the result.
After bumping into and being introduced to Secretary Kennedys son in a coffee shop, getting to read our new Health asset initiative in the back of a cab, I made my way to the Bible museum and sat at the center of a table with top members of HHS.
To discuss the Protection of Traditional Midwifery.
They listened with Open hearts, to the regulatory conditions and monopolization that is putting midwives in jail, underground, and keeping our maternal Health stats as bad as they are.
They listened and engaged as we talked deeply about Midwifery care in the traditional models outside the institution and its interference- and how this affects outcomes like postpartum depression C-section rates and everything midwives have known for generations.
They acknowledged without flinching- that we need to protect traditional midwives. We need to protect the constitutional right to choose them. Protect the midwives from persecution for regulatory offenses, and allow the people to choose.
They understood as doctors and scientists, at the beginning of Life must be protected to change the health of this nation.
I'm currently working on public statement request for secretary Kennedy, and a request for a statement and potentially executive action, from the President.
I plan to be back in DC soon.
I'm working very hard behind the scenes, please stay tuned for information on where to see our position statement to secretary Kennedy.
