Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Shameful, but not surprising.

“Harvard Medical School postponed an online course on transgender healthcare after the National Review, a conservative news outlet, contacted the school about the legality of offering fee waivers to transgender and “gender diverse” participants.”

“Immunizations work, they are very effective and safe, and they save lives. Vaccines are among the most rigorously studied and effective tools in public health.”

Kudos to AAFP, AAP, ACOG, ACP, IDSA for this.

It’s so gross to demand proof that someone “matters” for them to deserve health care. We are a rich country and *everyone* matters
Dr. Oz says that people must “prove that they matter,” otherwise they'll lose their Medicaid.

Enforcing work requirements for Medicaid is an assault on people who have #LongCOVID

People will have to get medical professionals to certify that they are disabled, otherwise they'll lose Medicaid. Why?

Healthcare should be a basic human right.

Kicking millions of Medicaid in a pay to play system is social murder. It’s eugenics. It’s telling the most vulnerable in society that they’re not worth protecting.

Please keep fighting the Medicaid cuts. Demand Universal healthcare for all!

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Just imagine this horrible thing happened to your kid. Wouldn’t you want to have a say in their health and future? Maybe let their Physician weigh in? Give your child some control over their own body?

How is it ok to take these decisions out of the hands of those who are living this nightmare?
This week, Louisiana legislators objected to adding rape, in cases where a minor is impregnated as a result of a sexual offense, as an exception for one of the strictest abortion bans in the country. LA has the 2nd highest maternal mortality in the US. A 9-year-old is currently pregnant in the state
Louisiana lawmakers reject adding exceptions for some rape cases to abortion ban
Louisiana lawmakers have for the third consecutive year rejected a bill that would have added some rape cases to the narrow list of exceptions to the state’s abortion ban.

If you work in women's health, or you're a woman, or you're a doctor to women, please read the new World Economic Forum report, Prescription for Change, which lays out the problem of women's exclusion from research. Impressive suggestions. So much work to do!

The entire MAHA platform is designed to obscure and deepen the root problems behind horrifically bad US public health. It will kill at least hundreds of thousands of people, but it will enrich billionaires—that is its only purpose.

If you're a nurse, a doctor, a respiratory therapist, a PA, etc., and you voted for this administration, then you're a fucking moron and a monster.

You can't sit there and say you care about your patients while voting for the very people who are working endlessly to kill them. Full stop.
Work in healthcare! You'll help people! You'll make a difference!

Can't make a difference if patients can't get to you in the first place or go into unmanageable debt trying.
