It's hearing day in Kansas v. U.S. — a case where anti-immigrant politicians are baselessly seeking to block #DACA recipients from accessing health care.
W/@gibsondunn, we're proud to represent individual DACA recipients & @CASAforall.

Today we're in court, defending #DACA recipients' ability to access health care under the #AffordableCareAct.

Abortion, birth control, IVF, and gender-affirming care...these are just some of the crucial health care services that are on the line this election. Make sure you're registered and have a plan to vote to ensure your voice is heard! 📢📢📢

@CFPB: take note, debt collectors of medical debt. CFPB will hold you accountable for unlawful attempts to collect on inaccurate medical debt bills.@CommCatHealth is proud to work with you to stop this.

In the United States of America, everyone deserves access to quality health care, including reproductive health care. Fertility treatments like IVF have helped millions of people start the families they desperately want. Everyone should be free to decide when and how to start their family, without intervention from the government and politicians. We applaud Senate Democrats for today’s vote to protect access to IVF and keep the government out of our personal, health decisions. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/…

Steward Health didn't just ruin a hospital, they ruined a community. Mary Ann lost her job as a nurse when the big health care corporation took over her hospital, stripped it for parts and then closed it. @FamiliesUSA is calling on Congress to protect access to health care and address the abusive price gouging and other anti-competitive tactics big health care corporations are using at the expense of people’s health and financial security. #stewardhealth #health #healthcare #healthcareworker #hospital #carneyhospital #quincymedicalcenter #medicalmonopoly

"Steward has a pathological lack of concern for anyone but themselves. They do whatever is good for them. They repeatedly misrepresented or outright falsified information to the state regulators, intending to downplay the impact of the closure." - Audra Sprague, former nurse at Steward Health xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1yn…

On July 22, the Louisa Carman Medical Debt Relief Act was signed into law! This means that most medical debt will no longer be reported to credit agencies, providing relief for individuals and families. But we need more! Let's urge the CFPB to expand these protections! (1/3)

Biden tonight, pretty sure this is new: "We're going to end medical debt ... We've already made sure medical debt can no longer be put on your credit report. We're going to wipe out medical debt for pennies on the dollar"

Today, SCOTUS' decision permits doctors in Idaho to provide emergency abortion care as litigation continues.
This is a temporary relief for people in Idaho right now, but it still leaves those in other states open to being denied emergency care.
Aka, more confusion and fear.

Today, the Supreme Court dismissed-- for now-- a challenge to EMTALA's protections for emergency abortion care. However, The Court missed an opportunity to state clearly and unequivocally that EMTALA’s protections preempt state abortion bans. npwf.info/3xMGYXI
