What does reproductive justice mean to you?

During CBC Week, Dr. Brandi Walker asked actor and advocate Lamman Rucker to share what reproductive justice means to him.

Thank you, Lamman, for joining the conversation and sharing your perspective with us.

Day one at CBC Week was all about conversation, culture and connection. 🖤

Mothering Justice Action Fund and Black Art and Activism Fund brought together leaders, advocates, creatives and community members for an intentional space to connect, share perspectives and have meaningful conversations about access, belonging and creating pathways for new voices.

Thank you to our panelists for bringing your experiences, insight and energy into the room — and to everyone who joined us and helped make Day One what it was.

We’re just getting started. ✨

Election season is around the corner, and this is your reminder: mamas’ voices are louder than ever.

A few months ago, hundreds of mamas, families, and advocates came together at Mamas’ March with one message: our voices matter, our votes matter, and our communities deserve leaders who will fight for us.

As we head into this election season, let’s carry that same energy forward. We will organize. We will show up. We will vote for our families, our communities, and the future we deserve.

This movement has always been powered by mamas. Now, let’s make our voices heard at the ballot box.

When mamas lead, change follows.

From expanding access to affordable child care to protecting reproductive freedom and strengthening economic security for families, the Congressional Mamas’ Caucus continues to center the issues that matter most to moms and caregivers.

Leaders like Rep. Adelita S. Grijalva, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, Congresswoman Nikema Williams, and Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley are helping advance the Mamas’ Agenda and keep families at the center of the conversation.

📣 Mamas’ March Update!

We’ve got an important update for our community. Mamas’ March will now take place on April 29!

And this year, we’re even stronger. We’re proud to be partnering with Michigan United because when our communities come together, our voices are louder and our impact is greater. ✊🏾

On April 29, we’ll gather at the Capitol to speak with lawmakers, share our stories, and show our elected leaders the power and unity of mamas and families across Michigan.

Bring your voice. Bring another mama. Let’s show them what community power looks like!

This week in DC, we gathered for State of the Mama, a powerful reminder that when the community comes together, change happens. 🤎

Thank you to everyone who showed up in community with us, from the In Her Honor portrait unveiling to the conversations and connections at our community event. Holding space to honor the mothers we’ve lost while uplifting the voices of those still fighting is what this work is all about.

And the work didn’t stop there. On Day 2, we took our stories directly to lawmakers, meeting with leaders and advocating for policies that protect and uplift mothers and families.

To every mama, partner, advocate, and supporter who stood with us, thank you for being part of this movement. Together, we continue to push for a future where every mother is seen, supported, and safe. A major shout out to our partners and the Congressional Mamas Caucus for your collaboration! ✨
