Yet another news story of CPS unjustly taking a Black baby. These are not aberrations; this is how family policing is designed to work. #AbolishCPS nytimes.com/2023/05/17/nyreg…

Days after Mila Jackson’s birth, her mother took Mila and her two brothers on what should have been a routine visit to the pediatrician. Instead, baby Mila was ripped away from her parents' loving care by Dallas CPS, and her father was arrested. 🧵

There is no place in the US where someone can be pregnant without fearing criminalization. Some places just criminalize people more frequently and for more pregnancy outcomes than others. California happens to be one that criminalizes people for their pregnancy outcomes.

Katrina Lipinsky graduated with $350k in debt to be a midwife and recognizes that despite the debt load of a physician she will never command the salary of one. We need to make it more enticing to people to come and stay here which includes allowing them to practice fully.

This is just my federal loan debt. I also had to take out $130,000 from a private lender to pay for my bachelors in nursing at @PennNursing. My estimated monthly payment after forbearance is over? Nearly $2k. Remember - this is federal only
