Let's go! The City of Cleveland - home to a public power utility - is one of the first in the nation i've heard of so far banning shutoffs during this federal shutdown crisis.

Public power can lead the nation in showing what democratic institutions can do to make our lives better.
We're announcing a 30-day moratorium on utility disconnections.

The federal shutdown and cuts to SNAP benefits have placed an unfair and unexpected burden on households. No one should have to choose between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table.

Hours after President Donald Trump’s announcement linking acetaminophen use during pregnancy with autism in children, a mother sat in my office, sobbing. Had she caused her child’s autism by treating the debilitating headaches she suffered while she was pregnant? Read more: https://cnn.it/4nO9e0q

On a statewide referendum in my red as red can be home state Missouri, abortion rights were overwhelmingly supported.

Gerrymandering is voter suppression.
I genuinely cannot believe that Ezra Klein said we should run pro-life candidates in Kansas, Ohio, and Missouri; three states that recently held abortion referendums where the pro-choice side won!

“Senator Cassidy, history will remember whether you protected the health of our people or stood silent as Americans suffered…I am doing all I can to give my children the future they deserve. Let’s “work on it” together.”

You cannot overdose on fentanyl by touching powder on a doorknob. Period.

But if you think you are overdosing, you should not drive your car…which you also shouldn’t do if you are having symptoms that are not consistent with fentanyl like this person did. “Responding to Narcan” is placebo effect.

Acetaminophen remains a safe pain relief option during pregnancy. Despite recent unfounded claims, there’s no clear evidence linking prudent use to fetal development issues. ACOG's guidance remains. When needed in pregnancy, acetaminophen should be used in moderation, after consulting a doctor.

How early meetings and after-hours events penalize physician-mothers*

*important to note that this should not just include mothers of young children: teens/young adults & disabled family members also require caregiving
How early meetings and after-hours events penalize physician-mothers
Structural scheduling norms in academic medicine disproportionately exclude women, especially physician-mothers, and must be redesigned for true professional equity.
