In the last 20 years there has been little progress made to reduce maternal mortality. In those 20 years, 10 million women died. At Americans for UNFPA, we want a renewed commitment for the United States to be a leader in international programs that save women's lives.
We also want our legislators to support a forthcoming Safe Motherhood Resolution in the House and a forthcoming Safe Motherhood bill in the Senate.
To see other bills that we support and ways to take action, go to http://www.americansforunfpa.org/takeaction
