Donald Trump vs. America’s Moms
Donald Trump recently hosted an Oval Office event on maternal health, promoting initiatives like reduced fertility drug costs and a new website, Moms.gov. While these efforts aim to make the U.S. more family-friendly, they contrast with broader policy actions that cut key support programs. The administration's $1 trillion reduction in Medicaid over the next decade threatens access to prenatal care and other vital services for low-income families.
