On September 25, 2018, a new bill titled the Maximizing Outcomes for Moms through Medicaid Improvement and Enhancement of Services Act (MOMMIES Act) was introduced in the United States. DONA International proudly supports the MOMMIES Act and applauds Senators Booker, Gillibrand, Baldwin, Cardin, Blumenthal, and Harris for demonstrating that doulas play a central role in providing high quality care to American families during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.
