We need WISCONSIN’s pharmacy benefit manager reformed legislation to pass this session. We ask all elected officials in Wisconsin to please make this happen. #PBMReform @WI4Patients

Ahead of Veterans Day, I was honored to welcome a flight of veterans and their families as they arrived in DC. To all those who bravely served our country, thank you to you and your family for your extraordinary service. The sacrifices that all of you have made to protect our

We can fight about government shutdowns, Tylenol, and circumcision, but nearly half of our neighbors struggle to pay the rent and afford lifesaving care. If we truly want to make America healthy, we must finally guarantee fresh food, education, and healthcare to all Americans.

Last week's field stats: ✅ 119 canvassing events ✅ 40,000+ doors knocked ✅ 50,000+ phone calls made This continues to be the biggest grassroots campaign our city has ever seen. And it's exactly how we'll beat the billionaires scrambling to stop us.

The common denominator is guns. You can pretend it’s not true. You can try to rationalize it. You can scream about everything else to try and change the subject. But the common denominator is guns.

Families and health workers mourning loved ones reminds us that loss is never easy. Today, the #BigBeautifulBill has led countless caregivers to mourn what will happen to our struggling medical system that already leaves over 50,000 to die every year. To Congress and our state

As the Senate decides our fate, 17 million Americans and over 300+ hospitals stand to become the first impacted by Medicaid cuts. Insurance or not, if a hospital’s gone, no one gets care. To truly Make America Healthy Again, we must finally guarantee care to all Americans.

Every day, Community Health Workers (CHW) connect folks to medical and social services wherever they are. For one million New Yorkers lacking access to care and 25% of families facing poverty, please uplift the @NYCHealthSystem’s CHWs working to give everyone a chance to thrive.

Like Cole, 50% of Americans struggle to afford their meds and over 100,000 die every year because of it. As we work to fix our broken system, please uplift his family’s initiative to mandate 90-days notice for changes in lifesaving prescription costs. https://t.co/3vgi6VZN0i

In 2024, 22-year old Cole Schmidtknecht died after the cost of his asthma inhaler soared to over $500. Though his prescriber and pharmacy should’ve done more, it was his insurance company and its benefits manager that truly failed him.

Cutting lifesaving Medicaid for those who need help the most — including millions of kids — is not the answer to our problems. Early in my career, a father waited to get care until it was too late. Days later, he had died of lung cancer. Every year, 250,000 Americans like him

Every year, over 300,000 Americans die because of a mistake or a missed diagnosis. Johns Hopkins further estimates that another 424,000 survive these errors, but end up permanently disabled. Adriana Smith, a nurse herself, was seen at a hospital and sent home before being found

No matter what forced Adriana’s hospital to keep her on life support, her mother should have been given the choice to decide. Today, Adriana’s family hopes to soon welcome a new baby to the world. However, the decision should never have been up to politicians or even Adriana’s

In February, Adriana Smith passed away. Though her heart still beat, her brain no longer functioned — an unfortunate situation known as brain death. Despite her family’s wishes, Georgia’s ambiguous state law convinced Emory University Hospital it had to keep Adriana’s body on

Every year, up to 50,000 Americans pass away because they lacked access to healthcare. So, we can take fluoride out of the water and ban synthetic dyes in our food, but until #MAHA works to guarantee lifesaving primary care for everyone, we will never Make America Healthy Again.

Lifesaving Insulin should not cost a patient nearly $500 — even as a deductible. Support the @AMDiabetesAssn, get our kids exercising, guarantee fresh food in every home and school, green spaces in every neighborhood, and access to preventative care for every American.

This is a stark reminder that the communities in New York are so near, but they can often seem worlds apart. So, if we are to truly make a better city — a better future — it’ll take all of us doing our best for both our families and each other.

Near this station is a public hospital filled with folks working tirelessly to uplift their neighbors every day. While many of us never have to settle or make do, many more — patients and providers alike — struggle to just get by.

Healthcare isn’t just about medicine. It’s also about giving folks the chance to finally get ahead. Please, support your local free clinics — and if you live in New York, uplift the incredible work of the @NYCHealthSystem’s Street Health Outreach and Wellness (SHOW) Program.
