Vice President Kamala Harris spoke at the 30-year celebration of Essence Festival in New Orleans to shed light on why the upcoming elections matter and what’s at stake, as many are concerned about the current state of our country and the pressing issues that go unnoticed.
Black Women in the United States are 3 to 4 times likely to die in connection with childbirth compared to other women.

It is important for us to inform the culture about how the Black maternal mortality rate is not regarded as an issue amongst women’s rights.

Vice President Kamala Harris affirmed that often the decisions made by those in power tend to revolve around those who are writing the checks and our votes. As U.S citizens of a democracy, our votes matter on valuable issues that are affecting us individually and collectively.

We know medical debt comes about most often a medical emergency, which nobody invites upon themselves or plans for. She continued by saying the credit score makes a decision about who is eligible for a car loan, or a small business loan or getting an apartment lease. What’s wrong about medical debt being used in the credit score, is the credit score is supposed to be a measure of whether you’re responsible with money. A medical emergency is not about that issue.”
