I feel really strongly that nature is for everyone and we need to improve accessibility practices in conservation; appreciated this read on how people are doing just that.

CMMI has announced a demo to introduce more prior authorization into traditional Medicare. My latest with Don Berwick in @statnews.com on that’s bad news:

Plans to test prior authorization in traditional Medicare are deeply troubling
Preauthorization is about to enter the lives of many seniors who have chosen traditional Medicare over MA, write former CMS Administrator Don Berwick and health policy expert Andrea Ducas.

This moment from today’s Medicaid vigil is so powerful…

Question: What do you say to the people who voted to cut Medicaid? Be honest.

We want to train one million Americans in the strategic logic and practice of non-cooperation, as well as the basics of community organizing and campaign design. This is how we slow down, stop, and ultimately defeat Trump’s authoritarian takeover. 👇

Disabled kids like mine rely on Medicaid to survive; this bill cuts Medicaid.

I don't know how else to say that medically complex disabled children will die as a result of this bill.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.

She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.

But the FDA recently denied its approval.

Now, her health hangs in the balance.

Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

This is as good a description that I've read of what makes universities so great and worth preserving, including some concentration of scholarly activity and discovery science.

If this is enacted, Indiana will be sued.
NEW: Indiana already has stringent voter ID rules... & the GOP is advancing a bill right now to strip university IDs from the list of options you can use.

This would make it much harder for students to vote.

At polling site at IU Bloomington, 2/3rds of voters in November used their student IDs.

USAID uses their money to buy crops from U.S. farmers and send them to kids around the world who need food.

Musk uses his money to buy ads during the Superbowl to spread anti-public health propaganda.
Thank you to everyone who stands with USAID. Share far and wide. Unfortunately we don’t have $40 million to buy up ads during the Super Bowl. Even if we did, we’d use it to support the U.S. economy while feeding kids around the globe.

Hey @goodtroublein.bsky.social how does this effect medical research and medical care in Indiana? Can someone help with talking points for contacting our reps? Maybe examples, like current cancer research, impact on Riley?

🚨RED ALERT for 🧪:

The Trump NIH just gashed indirect costs. This is a direct attack on universities.

“Pursuant to this Supplemental Guidance, there will be a standard rate of 15% across all NIH grants for indirect costs.” 😮
