Today we are saddened by the loss of Rosalynn Carter. Her work helped lead to the Vaccines for Children program, which still ensures countless kids can get vaccinated.

Thank you @RepKimSchrier! Your comments were so inspiring. Glad to have you bringing the voices of children to Congress.
At the @AmerAcadPeds White Coat Rally, I discussed my work in Congress to support our kids - expanding healthcare access, tackling the gun violence epidemic, supporting kids' mental health - and thanked pediatricians for their dedication to children's health and wellbeing.
Outstanding event! Thanks for coming @RepCaraveoMD. So glad to have you in Congress.
I came to Congress to build a future where every child has the opportunities they deserve.
Glad to join @AmerAcadPeds’ White Coat Rally today to talk about how I use my experience as a pediatrician standing up for kids in Congress.
