Here we are again: Private equity-owned Genesis Healthcare went bankrupt while raking in profits for investors — leaving vulnerable seniors at risk. House passed #HB1460 would shine a light on this broken system and help PA put patients before profits.
Genesis HealthCare, one of the nation’s largest skilled nursing chains, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Wednesday, saying it needed to address its “legacy debt structure.”. @GenesisHCA #skillednursing #nursinghomes #longtermcare #postacutecare.

Defunding Planned Parenthood doesn't stop abortion—it stops Pap smears, HIV tests, and prenatal care for those who can least afford it. Anti-abortion extremists are waging war on poor people, and they don't seem to mind a bit.

My Administration is urging @CDCgov and Sec. Kennedy to promptly approve vaccine recommendations, so our children, seniors, and families can be prepared for flu season this fall. Health care must be rooted in science — and we know tested, effective vaccines protect us from.
