Megan Suhr, with Friends of Iowa Midwives, has been lobbying for the rights of licensed, professional, certified midwives to be able to practice throughout Iowa this legislative session. Licensed, professional, certified midwives are specifically trained to assist women in childbirth. Suhr says there are several legislators that are hindering the bills from moving forward, which is standing in the way of Iowa families being able to exercise their right to access the care provider of their choice. She urges Iowa citizens and constituents to contact legislators and encourage them to stop blocking these bills.
