Thank you so much for sharing your story @GovTimWalz! 🧡More than 186,000 Minnesotans have the disease of #infertility and lack of insurance coverage is the biggest barrier to medical treatment. #mnleg: You can help! Please pass the MN Building Families Act! @resolveorg

[Minnesota Building Families Coalition @BldgFamilies4MN]

Thank you @LtGovFlanagan!
#mnleg Please help us pass the MN Building Families Act to help people access infertility diagnosis and treatment, including IVF. #profamily @RepJeffBrand @ErinMayeQuade

[Minnesota Building Families Coalition @BldgFamilies4MN]

Thank you @GovTimWalz!! We agree. Minnesotans need access to infertility diagnosis and treatment, including IVF.

"I just can’t accept that Minnesota is a state that does not offer family-building opportunities to people. We pride ourselves on families here."

Thank you @TMNwithVineeta @wccoradio for talking about the life-changing importance of fertility insurance. #mnleg Pass the MN Building Families Act! (SF 1704/HF 1658) @ErinMayeQuade @RepJeffBrand @resolveorg @MirayaGran

[Minnesota Building Families Coalition @BldgFamilies4MN]

More coverage on our legislation! Our bill author in the House, @RepJeffBrand, spoke with @AC830 and @JordanaWCCO on @wccoradio this morning. #mnleg Let's pass the MN Building Families Act! SF 1704/HF 1658

[Aaron Wheeler @awheelersm]

@emmagreenman can you please explain why the fertility insurance provision was not included in the HHS bill? If we are going to be pro-women's health in our policies, that means that this NEEDS to be covered. Minnesota families need this.

[Tom Lehman @TomLehman1]

Thank you @RepJeffBrand for fighting for MN families! We have the @MNAFLCIO, @SEIUHCMNIA, @MNACOG, @LLSusa and LGBTQ leaders. We’ll be back! @ResolveMidwest @GovTimWalz #mnleg

[Tom Lehman @TomLehman1]

Thank you @ErinMayeQuade for fighting for MN families! We have labor, doctors, the LGBTQ community and pro-family advocates. We’ll be back next session to get this done. @ResolveMidwest @GovTimWalz

[Erin Maye Quade @ErinMayeQuade]

I’m saddened this didn’t make it across the finish line, but even more committed to getting this done next sessions thank you to all of the advocates and Minnesotans who shared their stories. We will keep going!

[Minnesota Building Families Coalition @BldgFamilies4MN]

We have disappointing news to share about our MN fertility insurance provision in the HHS omnibus bill. Read the statement from @resolveorg and continue to fight with us. Thank you bill sponsors Sen. @ErinMayeQuade and @RepJeffBrand

Around Mom's Day, I wrote about these #mnleg proposals:
-New accommodations for pregnant or lactating employees
-Requirement that insurers cover infertility treatments
-Exempting more baby products from sales tax (that now has been removed from tax bill) https://t.co/6ER73wDZhy

[Jennifer "Jay" Palumbo @jennjaypal]

Today is not an easy day for many. Whether they have had pregnancy losses, infertility issues, mothers that can’t be with them, etc. Unfortunately, sometimes, these “holidays” can just remind some of what they don’t have.

Therefore, I want to take a moment if I could to highlight this wonderful woman who used her own painful infertility journey to try and make lives easier for others.

@risal770 has advocated tirelessly for YEARS across the country for increased awareness around reproductive health, advocated for people to have the access to care they need to receive fertility treatment and has been instrumental is changing laws around third-party building. While we honor mothers on this day, it was important to me to honor Risa because she has honestly helped people have the opportunity to become one!

Thank you Risa for all you’ve done. I love you and I see you!
