In this episode of Wide Awake in Wisconsin, we are faced with a very different reality than we’ve previously known and Sara takes this time to discuss Governor Evers’ response to the coronavirus outbreak. In the Peek at Policy, Sara takes a look at policies that the State Legislature could take up and pass in a special session to provide some much needed help at this time. Policies like Medicaid Expansion and approval of some important Medicaid waivers.
Next, Sara sits down with Tia Murray with Harambee Village Doulas to discuss Black Maternal & Child Health in Wisconsin and recognize the third annual Black Maternal Health Week beginning on April 11th.
Sara also reminds people to complete their census and to vote in the April 7th election!
