Care coordination may be critically important to ensure that women with multiple health needs receive access to all the services they need, will be important to figure out reimbursement models to ensure this can happen when women see multiple providers, including across systems

List of recent executive orders impacting young people. Noticeably absent? Expanding access to health care, education, employment protections, or anything else that would meaningfully improve the lives of young people… #SAHM2026

One of the things I really love about #SAHM2026 is how they center the youth voice. Here, Ela Chintagunta reminds us of the importance of positive youth development for affecting the trajectory of youth living with chronic conditions

Always excited for the Martin Shapiro symposium in my division but especially excited for what’s sure to be an outstanding talk by Seth Berkowitz on food security and population health @domucla.bsky.social

Of course. And that’s why Dems need to lean in and work towards dismantling ICE. First no funding. Impeach Noem. Demand hearings on ICE’s operation in MN. Demand that Miller resign. Don’t let up.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social you will never get another chance to have a backbone after this pathetic capitulation, and I hope to all that is good that you’re primaried (brutally) for this cowardice. Shame.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Put another way, Medicaid contributes roughly as much to Detroit's economy than car manufacturing, more to Houston than the chemical industry, almost twice as much to Los Angeles as motion picture production--these are big numbers!

It's a worker's party now.

The White House is touting tax benefits for tipped workers in the reconciliation bill, but 2 million tipped workers could be among those at risk of losing health coverage because of the #Medicaid and #ACA marketplace cuts in the bill. (1/3) www.nbcwashington.com/news/busines...

According to CBO, only 20% of the 7.8 million people expected to lose coverage because of Medicaid policies will have access to other coverage like subsidized marketplace plans or employer-based insurance.

I have often warned colleagues/students about the fact that LLM like ChatGPT just make up non-existent references (or inappropriately reference real work) so it’s nice to have a concrete example of how embarrassing it can be if you don’t take the time to check! www.cnn.com/2025/05/29/h...

Yikes

From @commonwealthfund.org big #Medicaid cost-shifts to states will harm children. Eliminating coverage for parents will result in their children losing coverage too. States will also have to cut coverage for kids federal law doesn't require them to cover: www.commonwealthfund.org/blog/2025/de...

George Armstrong Lecture @pas2025.bsky.social today was incredibly inspirational! These pioneers are the spark and hearing from them was exactly what I needed today! #PAS2025

"Now, that path to a scientific career is in tatters. If the NIH continues to stall, reject, and terminate grants, we are in danger of losing an entire generation of scientists and the life-changing discoveries they would have made."

This is really disheartening

What the what?!?!

The IMF released its latest forecasts today, and they seem to suggest that the folks most hurt by Trump's trade war are... Americans.

4/5 HHS employees currently on administrative leave report they were given no opportunity to hand off their responsibilities, suggesting important work will simply be discontinued. Here's a quote from @sandhyawrites.bsky.social. ⤵️

I did an interview with my alma mater, and the result is a useful long-form interview that might provide a useful primer on the current tariff mess, for those who want to dig in a bit further:

Exclusive: Members of President Trump’s National Security Council, including White House national security adviser Michael Waltz, conducted government business over personal Gmail accounts, according to documents reviewed by The Post and interviews with U.S. officials. wapo.st/4caT5O4

It's the biggest tax hike in decades and the most regressive in living memory.

My thoughts are with all the HHS employees today. Please know that the cuts being made are not a reflection of the value of the work you all have been doing. We know how critical you all are to public health. #ThisIsPublicHealth

So deeply F’d

"Turned away when badges didn't work." Just gratuitous cruelty to committed civil servants who've already taken so much abuse. The costs of these reckless cuts to all of our health will be vast. But the inhumane treatment of hard-working employees is itself a moral stain.

“Friday was my last day leading communications at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. I left my job because I believe public health policy must always be guided by facts and not fantasy.” Kevin Griffis writing in WaPo about what it was like to work under RFK Jr

Love that our federal government is just engaging in extortion now

Completely unsurprising but still disheartening to see - new evidence that #OBGYN supply decreased in restrictive states post #Dobbs More women will suffer, but I guess that was always the point… jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

My kingdom for a chief justice who doesn’t inspire grateful backslapping from convicted felons

Let’s be very clear about what this is: trump’s attempt to punish scientists and physicians who he knows are against his numerous health-harming policies. He is just trying to silence/threaten potential opposition.

Three things worth knowing about the current fiscal debate: 1. When they're talking about savings, the numbers are usually billions (though sometimes millions). 2. When they're talking about tax cuts, the numbers are usually trillions. 3. A trillion is a thousand times larger than a billion.

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

Good morning. This week Republicans in the House may take a vote to advance their budget plan. That budget plan would: - Cut Medicaid by about $1 trillion - Cut food stamps - Spend trillions on tax cuts mostly for the rich and corporations - Add trillions to the national debt

Trump’s attack on US institutions, even if fully expected, is dispiriting, discombobulating and dangerous. In this very difficult time, we have to remember one thing: This is not normal, and it should not be normalized.

Do not pre-comply! Make them force you to change language if that’s what they want. We make their jobs easier if we go along with all this nonsense.

This is how it’s done.

But sure let’s confirm RFK Jr and make this problem a whole lot worse.
