Raise the federal Medicaid matching rate for maternal healthcare to 90%.

Evidence
The office website still says she will fight to ensure people can access medical services "from prenatal to mental health care." The same page's latest dated items for Jun. 11-9, 2026 are about the PRIDE Act, shell companies, labor, and the budget, not Medicaid maternal-rate policy.
Congress.gov lists Nikema Williams as "In Congress 2021 - Present" and shows 144 sponsored bills and 1,882 cosponsored bills. The member activity page returns no matches for "Medicaid", "maternal", "pregnancy", or "birth".
Assessments
Available evidence does not show that Nikema Williams secured or materially advanced a federal change raising the Medicaid maternal-health matching rate to 90%. Her official materials show general support for maternal and health-care access, but the cited congressional record does not identify a sponsored or cosponsored measure matching this specific promise, and there is no evidence here that the policy was enacted. On this record, the promise cannot be scored as delivered, partial, or a failed serious attempt; it remains unresolved.
