Summer Lee confronts RFK Jr. over the Black maternal health crisis and refuses to let him hide behind generic maternal-health language. Lee points out that Black women are at least three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women, that most of those deaths are preventable, and that the administration has canceled Black maternal-health research grants while proposing to eliminate Healthy Start. She also presses RFK Jr. over directives removing words such as “Black” from funding language, asking how the federal government can solve a Black maternal mortality crisis if it refuses to even say Black.
