Medicaid provides essential health coverage to 80 million people across the
country, including those with cancer. Any cuts could jeopardize lifesaving care for
millions of cancer patients. Senator Jack Reed, can I count on you to oppose
cuts & #ProtectMedicaid?

The Congressional Budget Office estimates these cuts will result in 8.6 million people losing coverage with no access to affordable health insurance options.

We urge members of the House Energy & Commerce Committee to vote against these shortsighted, life-threatening cuts to #Medicaid. (2/2)

Tracking the aftermath of natural disasters is not “government waste” or some “climate change hoax.” It helps our communities rebuild and prevent the effects of future disasters. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/climate/noaa-billion-dollar-disasters.html

Not good
President Trump released a proposed budget that called for cutting the funding of the CDC by almost half. Its chronic disease center was slated for elimination entirely, a proposal that came as a shock to many state and city health officials.

The Avalanche had a two goal lead in Game 7 and were in complete control.

And then it all fell apart.

There's no sugar-coating this flabbergasting collapse. And Nathan MacKinnon didn't.

More firings at the National Cancer Institute, including the Cancer Information Service, “which provides answers to doctors and patients about cancer, and updates to databases summarizing cancer information for healthcare providers”.

I mean who needs it, right?
