Never heard of it. Found a one page description here...

https://www.harris.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Maternal%20CARE%20Act%20of%202019%20background.pdf

This phrase is used a few times and I find it interesting, "... identify high-risk pregnancies, and provide mothers with the culturally competent care and resources they need."

What is "Culturally competent"? The only thing that can mean to me is that the healthcare provider must understand black culture? I'm sure the racial discrepancies can be traced to lifestyle choices. Drug use, poor diet, bad weight management, etc.

Jeez, everything is about race. EVERYTHING.
