Today, the Senate Finance Committee held a hearing on rising health care costs. But the real, urgent focus should be that 20 million people would face higher premium costs if the PTC enhancements expire at the end of the year.

Here’s how real people will are affected.

Open enrollment for 2026 is around the corner but rising premiums & fewer options are threatening coverage for millions. Without swift Congressional action, 2026 might be the year open enrollment starts closing the door for affordable health care. www.americanprogress.org/article/open...

We need to talk about how social media algorithms push moms down a slippery slope of distrust.

From "Are my kids getting enough support in school?" To "Maybe I should homeschool." To "Maybe modern medicine is bad."

I've seen this first-hand in research I'm doing on parenting apps. 1/🧵

TRUMPFLATION is hitting health care, quite possibly “the sharpest increases in medical costs” in 15 years.

Republicans chose to shut down the government rather than fix our health care crisis. Tell your U.S. Senators to pass a funding bill that reverses health care cuts and reopens the government! #MomSky

The government is shut down. Why? Because Trump and Republicans are trying to rip health care away from our parents, kids, and loved ones.

24 million people will see their premiums skyrocket and 15 million will lose health care altogether. This harm is preventable. #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown

Tylenol does not cause autism.

Autistic kids do not need to be cured.

Okay thanks bye.

The unfounded link of Tylenol use during pregnancy to autism is a creative way to blame mothers and further stigmatize an autism diagnosis.

In my latest for @americanprogress.bsky.social, I explore how Trump administration policies are driving up health care costs. Instead of helping families, these policies make coverage less affordable and put millions at risk: www.americanprogress.org/article/5-wa...
5 Ways the Trump Administration Is Driving Up Health Care Costs for Families
Recent legislation, regulation, tariffs, and other changes by the Trump administration are adding up to make coverage less affordable for millions of Americans.

Trump promised lower costs, but prices are STILL too high. He and Republicans cut $1T from health care—driving costs up for all of us—and now want deeper cuts. Not OK. Learn what happened below + fight back: trumpflation.momsrising.org
