Owners have urged us to have a conversation on the show about the cost of giving birth. If you know someone who was surprised about the literal dollars and cents of our medical system when it comes to labor and childbirth, we’d like to talk to them.

Abortions aren’t only for unwanted pregnancies. I had 3 for wanted pregnancies. They don’t care if Black mothers live or die. Black mothers are 4X more likely to die from complications of pregnancy and childbirth. So I didn’t need this BS today to know what you think about us. – at Los Angeles, CA

A good day to remind the news media that they should talk to and platform black and brown women when discussing abortion rights. And yes, this unfortunately needs to be said.

While we are urgently imagining public safety beyond policing: I’m a nurse, I’ve intervened in medical emergencies on the train. There are plenty of regular people who do this, and I’ve said this for years- We need emergency medical supplies available on train platforms.

The allegations in the lawsuit are alarming and sad. It takes incredible courage to fight back this way against your own colleagues, against your own party, and against your own political interests. rochestercitynewspaper.com/r… #ROC
