I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

The folks in D.C. are bullies. They were the folks in jr. high who stuck their legs out to trip others. They laughed when someone fell and clapped when someone made a mistake. And now they give their undeserving friends top jobs and they run the country like a frat house. 😤

I get it sis! 🥹 This is a REAL feeling! #medsky
I cried at my annual checkup.
Having a Black woman physician is life changing. She intently listened to my concerns & immediately scheduled specialty appointments.
Other physicians have dismissed my worries & said to just lose weight.
It makes all the difference to feel cared for by your doctor.

I really believe that covering these drugs now would reduce medical and other drug costs in the future. If it eliminates the need for other meds, why not? This move could also address other comorbidities.
