@HeatherHHoward, Professor of the Practice at @Princeton University, examines Medicaid cuts, the role of Planned Parenthood, and the consequences of vaccine misinformation.
This weekend on State of Affairs:
Sat. 8 am, 5:30 pm @myNJPBS
Sun. 8 am, 12 pm @myNJPBS
Overnight, the House passed the biggest cut to healthcare in history. A provision that hasn’t gotten much attention would defund Planned Parenthood health centers. My op-ed analyzes what this would mean for the 23 health centers in New Jersey. njspotlightnews.org/2025/05/… @Princeton
With Congress poised to consider deep cuts to Medicaid early next week, listen to this incredibly timely conversation about how those cuts would undermine children's health. @First_Focus @PrincetonSPIA
