A proposed rule could make drug ads so costly most stop running – cutting patients off from health information they rely on. Fewer ads means patients lose a key source of health information. Read more in @dcexaminer: bit.ly/45HC8Zk | @InformYourCare
We want to thank @RepRichHudson @RepScottPeters for sponsoring the RESULTS Act, which fixes Medicare's outdated lab payment system, stops cuts, and protects seniors' access to the test they need.
Results matter for the millions of patients/physicians who rely on clinical laboratory services to help prevent disease, diagnose conditions, and guide treatment choices. @GOPDocs Caucus agrees, endorsing the #RESULTSAct! Congress must act #StopLabCuts: StopLabCuts.org.

· Vaccines don’t just protect individuals — they protect entire families. When parents, children, and caregivers stay up to date, they create a protective circle around older loved ones. Policies that support vaccine access are critical for families nationwide.
· Vaccines save lives — especially for older Americans. As we age, our immune systems weaken, making preventable illnesses like COVID-19, RSV, and shingles even more dangerous. Staying up to date on recommended vaccines is essential to public health.
