Holy shit. Do guys like this not realize that what they are saying is horrible? In this day and age very few should be dying because of pregnancy. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/05/bill-cassidy-maternal-mortality-rates

Gosh, I wonder why he wants to pin the blame on black women instead of the doctors and medical staff who no doubt contributed to the maternal deaths of primarily black women. :la

Yes, on its face, our maternal mortality rates are abysmal, but if you only count white women, theyre not that bad!

See guys. The people that matter survive! /s to be very clear.

Keep in mind that he's supposed to be a Senator for all Louisianans. He does not view black people as constituents, in other words "the maternal death rate wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the bleks". In his mind a higher mortality rate for black women is a feature, not a bug.

Surely it's not that bad.
Surely like most of these trash 'journalists' they missed the context.
About a third of our population is African American; African Americans have a higher incidence of maternal mortality. So, if you correct our population for race, were not as much of an outlier as itd otherwise appear. Now, I say that not to minimize the issue but to focus the issue as to where it would be. For whatever reason, people of color have a higher incidence of maternal mortality

Hey I was right! It's fucking worse that what they claimed

Ban this guy from public office yesterday.

Except this is LA, so he's probably in the running for governor now.
