Mega🧵 CDC IGNORES URGENT EPI AID REQUESTS

1/9 🚨 Maine is facing the largest HIV outbreak in its history.
It asked CDC for help.
😡 CDC is ignoring the request.

This is not getting enough attention in the news — and it should be.

Share with your reps -

Every House Dem:

✅ Show up to work.
📣 Make a big deal about it. You're working & ready to fix the shutdown mess.
🎭 Bored? Do a mock swearing in of Grijalva.

Be creative. Just do something.

Crypto Under Pressure: Emerging Data Suggests Potential Bear Market Ahead
The crypto market experienced a downturn after October 10, leading to a prevailing bearish sentiment. Bitcoin's price has dropped significantly, nearing a low for the year, causing market anxiety. Altcoins like Solana and Chainlink have faced substantial year-to-date losses despite Bitcoin, XRP, and Ethereum showing some gains. October saw record inflows into crypto ETFs, particularly Bitcoin and Ethereum, but this did not initiate recovery. The Federal Reserve's planned halt to quantitative tightening and a potential interest rate cut are expected to increase liquidity. Analysts suggest that while increased liquidity doesn't guarantee price increases, it removes a hindrance. Altcoins and DeFi projects are struggling to attract new investments amid security and regulatory concerns. Concerns regarding overvalued AI stocks could trigger further Bitcoin price declines, impacting altcoins more severely. Bitcoin has recovered slightly but remains significantly below its all-time high prior to the market crash. Short-term market weakness is anticipated to continue despite policy shifts.

Actions have consequences. Unfortunately for people providing and seeking reliable OB/GYN care in Iowa, they’re experiencing the negative consequences of others’ choices and actions.

Rarely do the people making the rules have to live by or suffer under them.
Iowa doesn't have enough OB-GYNs. Is the state's abortion ban part of the problem?
Iowa ranks last among states for the number of OB-GYNS per capita. State legislators are trying to recruit more, but some doctors say the state's strict abortion ban is partially to blame.
