Replying to @stillmyson
So in short, there was time to intervene. Though my son was never given the fighting chance against stillbirth, I will continue to share his story & demand more is done to keep other healthy babies from being allowed to “just die” too. Until my last breath, this I promised Owen.

I just messaged @SenThomTillis, @bradknottfornc, @TedBuddNC to advocate for stillbirth prevention! It's time to make our voices heard—bypass full voicemails and backlogged inboxes by sending your message directly to your lawmakers now. #TakeAction shine.hilltop-app.com

As a parent to a child that should be turning 11 this October I am continuing to transfer my grief into pushing to prevent stillbirths from shattering other families. Pleases join me in raising money for PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy! via @givebutter givebutter.com/thalia2026/Ow…

We call on our leadership to do what’s right now. Pass a responsible budget that serves the ppl of our state & fully fund Medicaid ASAP. @ErinforNC we need your support to keep families safe & healthy.
North Carolina should be expanding access to health care, not restricting it. We can solve this on a bipartisan basis. The legislature needs to come back and fully fund Medicaid.

This is a systemic failure. Our son should be 10 this year and the same causes of stillbirth continue unaddressed. Please read my story and share to help stop this neglected public health crisis. "Like many NC families, stillbirth stole our son" carolinajournal.com/opinion/…

Monitoring movements is a proven solution to preventable stillbirth and should be standard practice in the third trimester of every pregnancy. Our @CounttheKicksUS app makes it easy! #StillbirthPrevention #MaternalHealth #CounttheKicks #Stillbirth #FetalMovementMatters

Nearly 24,000 babies are stillborn in the U.S. each year. For too long, this crisis was ignored. 💔 We’re grateful to see @NIH launch a $37M Stillbirth Research Consortium—bringing answers, hope, & prevention. This is recognition our babies deserve. Thank you. 💙 #UnitedWePUSH

We’re so grateful to @NIH for hearing us & investing in stillbirth research. This is the first big step we needed to end preventable stillbirth in the US. 💙 youtube.com/clip/Ugkxdi9DnYW…

The rate of stillbirth & maternal mortality worldwide is rising! 💔 Many of these deaths are preventable! Pls. keep advocating with us for better care in the US & for our country to go back to providing foreign aid for Maternal and Child Health. All families deserve a chance!

Big win for California. A judge just blocked DHS and ICE from using racial profiling. ✅ They can’t stop people just for speaking Spanish, having an accent, or standing outside a Home Depot. ✅ They need reasonable suspicion—not skin color or where you work. ✅ They must give detainees free, confidential access to lawyers. No more secret surveillance, no more ghost detentions.

North Carolina is one of the fastest-growing states in the country. As businesses discover our talented workforce, incredible quality of life, and more, they know where to call home.

Facts! @bradknottfornc vote no on the Big Bill HR1 for your NC constituents!!
AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

I just made a @commoncause call: Tell Congress: REJECT this bad budget bill! The Senate is rushing a bill packed with special interest giveaways, billionaire tax breaks, and cuts to crucial lifelines like Medicaid and food stamps. Make a call here: act.commoncause.org/call_cam…
