We Know How to Save Moms. We’re Just Not Doing It

The U.S. has the highest maternal mortality rate among developed countries, and 80% of those deaths are preventable. So why are things getting worse? Chelsea Clinton sits down with model Christy Turlington Burns (CEO of Every Mother Counts, director of Perilous Passage: Birth in America) and comedian Angelina Spicer (founder of Spicey Moms) to talk about abortion bans, labor and delivery closures, Medicaid hurdles, and postpartum depression. Plus, both Christy and Angelina share the stories of individual women they’ve met throughout the country while doing advocacy work. You can follow Christy @cturlington and Angelina @angelinaspicer on Instagram.
