Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

The government is slashing public health jobs, gutting vaccine programs, and fueling a measles comeback. This is not reform—it’s sabotage.

I can’t not believe that today, in 2025, I had to get a measles vaccine for a disease that shouldn’t exist in this country. Thanks RFK Jr.! (also PSA for people of a certain age: get your titers checked. You, too, may need a booster.) www.npr.org/sections/sho...
With measles in the news, adults are wondering, do I need a vaccine booster?
With a measles outbreak growing in West Texas, and isolated cases popping up across the country, experts say vaccination is the best protection. And not just for kids. Some adults may need a booster.
