Modern Midwifery.

Midwives in New York need our help. Free Our Midwives is campaigning the New York State legislature to pass the Midwifery Modernization Act before the summer break. This is a piece of legislation that would free NY midwives from the archaic and patriarchal requirement of having an obstetrician ‘approve’ their practice & would allow midwives to function as the independent healthcare providers they are trained to be. Please join me in contacting NYS legislators to show our support of this legislation – let’s give it ONE BIG PUSH and get it passed this session!
Here is more information about the Act itself

And here is what you can do to help:
1) Please pass this call for action along to all of your friends, family, & midwives especially those living in New York.
2) If you live in NY, click here to find out exactly who to call/write.
