Dear Senator,
As one of thousands of MomsRising members in New Hampshire, I urge you to support SB 246, MOMnibus 2.0—a bipartisan, pro-family bill that strengthens maternal health, supports working parents, and helps ensure babies get the best start in life.
New Hampshire is a great place to raise a family, but for too many, affording and accessing maternal health care is a challenge, especially in rural areas. Employers are also feeling the strain as new parents—especially moms—are forced to leave the workforce due to gaps in family support.
MOMnibus 2.0 is a fiscally responsible, commonsense investment in strong families and a strong economy. This bill will:
- Prioritize maternal mental health so moms get the care they need;
- Support moms across New Hampshire by improving rural maternal health care and birth options;
- Expand family supports to help parents navigate the early years; and
- Strengthen workforce protections so no one has to choose between a job and family.
When we support moms, we strengthen families, communities, and New Hampshire’s workforce. MOMnibus 1 became law in 2023 because our legislature recognized that strong families mean a strong economy—let’s continue that MOMentum.
Please vote Ought to Pass on SB 246 to ensure NH moms and families get the care and support they need.
