Low #MediCal reimbursement rates on #breastpumps hurt mothers and their children. In @CapRadioNews, CA mothers share how barriers to #breastfeeding impact their everyday lives. #InvestinMothers #CALeg #normalizebreastfeeding https://t.co/7gO0ylSOkU
CA families deserve a chance for healthy lifestyles from the start, but “crummy pumps make it hard for women to make healthy choices for their babies.” #Breastfeeding protects children from diseases & helps shield mothers from health risks. #CALeg https://t.co/7gO0ylSOkU
. @CapRadioNews demonstrates the need for CA mothers to have access to affordable & high-quality #breastpumps. Increasing #MediCal reimbursement rates will eliminate barriers for low-income moms & prioritize the health of infants. https://t.co/7gO0ylSOkU #InvestInMothers #CALeg
