Those African-American leaders who lead in improving Black health are special because they realize the most important thing we possess is our health!
Representative Carter a Democrat has especially pushed hard for policies to improve the health status of Black women and children in reducing high rates of maternal mortality and infant mortality. 

Not only has Rep Carter pushed hard for health equity policies, she works closely with local individuals and groups including veterans who are engaged in community-based preventative health initiatives.
Rep Carter has tirelessly highlighted the unacceptable high levels of chronic diseases among African-Americans particularly heart disease; she’s challenged Blacks to take the lead in health self-improvement by reducing internal health detriments and living healthier lifestyles.
