Show full summary
- Families: Calls for universal paid family and medical leave and universal access to affordable, high-quality childcare and early education, plus supports like nutrition, housing, and health services to help children grow safely.
- People seeking care: Affirms the right to plan, space, or end a pregnancy safely and legally and endorses access to abortion, contraception, prenatal and postpartum care, and gender-affirming care.
- Historically marginalized communities: Highlights harms from criminalization, reproductive coercion, and forced sterilization and emphasizes equity and dignity for communities that face the greatest barriers.
- Health care system and workforce: Commits to person-centered, community-rooted maternal health care that expands the full continuum of maternal services and strengthens accountability.
- Coverage and funding equity: Condemns funding restrictions that deny or delay reproductive health care based on income, immigration status, insurance status, or geography and calls for coverage of fertility treatments and assisted reproductive technologies with ethical safeguards.
