Sad and disgusting but not entirely surprising. ☚ī¸ Women already experience "bad medicine" based on bias and straight up ignorance and misogyny. For BIPOC women, it's doubled. Infuriating.

Thank you for continuing to do this much needed research and raise awareness. 💙💚đŸĻ‹

All of that. It's definitely troubling that those who sit at intersections. My hope is that the bill doesn't pass.

Thank you so much for writing about this, Tomesha. It's so clear that the Educate Act is a farce that will harm BIPOC healthcare equity, and, ironically, not improve conditions for anyone else either. If we can't improve healthcare for the most vulnerable, it signals a crumbling system for everyone.

Well said Angie. It's infuriating that the ones making these decisions are the ones LEAST impacted by the results.
