The CDC attributes the disparities to unequal access to care, structural racism and implicit biases in the health care system that also can lead to a higher prevalence of underlying health conditions that complicate pregnancy.
I always believe that everyone regardless of race or ethnicity deserves the best care. I don’t care if the person is black or white or anything else, all people are equal and should be treated so. However, it’s wrongheaded to blame racial disparities on “…unequal access to care, structural racism and implicit biases in the health care system…” where there are other more obvious reasons for the disparities, but dare not be spoken or researched in today’s politically correct environment. We should address these disparities 100% but we can only do so if we are honest about what is happening,… Read more »
She used to hold conference calls where you could sign up and listen and ask questions of our representative. I participated in a couple.

Articales calling Underwood a nurse once again? Thought she just has a degree in nursing and has never been or worked as registered nurse? Thought she got out of college, worked for the obama campaigns and then ran for office—thats her worldly work history
Loren Underwood is controlled totally by blm. She called the riots by blm “beautiful.” She has destroyed a formerly good district and must be beaten badly next time or the once beautiful western suburbs will be a ghetto. Look what her people did in Bloomingdale at Indian lakes this weekend. Shooting, ghetto parties.

“The package of bills would fund community organizations” I have to wonder how effective these community organizations are. Seems crooked to me and if it’s such a widespread problem does a community organization have a wide reach.

Her worldly work history taught her to lie like a politician.
