No one should have to go into debt in order to access care in the first place… The crushing medical debt we experience in this country is a policy choice. We can also make choices to prevent it. That said, I am very happy for these 11,500 people! #MedSky #ObGynSky #HealthPolicy

Hello, @prhdocs.bsky.social!!! So happy to see you here!!!

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor. I spent my childhood behind barbed wire. My parents lost everything. 1/
