Americans expect more from their healthcare system. The question now is whether our policies can meet that expectation. Grateful to join @SenMarkKelly and @314action @VoteShaughnessy to discuss what a more ambitious, practical healthcare agenda demands—and how we begin delivering on it! @HLTHEVENT

I agree!
Just got home watching the evening news with dinner and Ann and seeing @AnnieAndrewsMD making national headlines. Imagine having a serious thoughtful pediatrician in the U.S. Senate how game-changing, so cool

I’ve launched off the front of aircraft carriers hundreds of times, have a Master’s degree in aeronautical engineering, and am a test pilot and even I wouldn’t suggest to the Navy how to engineer specific systems on its ships. Donald Trump should stick to what he knows best — ballrooms, bankruptcy, and bullshit.
SCOOP: Trump has directed the Navy to tear out a complex system for launching fighter jets from its aircraft carriers and instead go back to using steam catapults, a move Navy officials have fought for years and will likely cost billions in extra dollars. U.S. officials say Trump signed a national security memorandum today directing the change, which would involve removing the electromagnetic catapult system used by the ships in the Gerald R. Ford class of carriers wsj.com/us-news/trump-orders… @MarcusReports
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The full memo states that the Secretary of War shall provide the President with a PLAN to revert ONE future carrier, CVN-81, to steam catapults. It does not order equipment removed from any existing aircraft carriers. whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

Watching a flu outbreak sweep through a major military training installation after @PeteHegseth pointlessly politicized the vaccine requirement is a reminder that viruses are unimpressed by amateur political theater. nytimes.com/2026/06/18/us/fl…

🎥 On a new Behind the Curtain w/ @mikeallen, Microsoft President Brad Smith slams tech moguls for grandiose warnings that are alienating Americans, especially graduates: "Too often, this is being presented to them as something that is going to happen to them, not for them."

My name is Jasmine Clark. I’m a lifelong Georgian, mom, PhD microbiologist, college professor, and state representative who flipped a Republican seat. I’ve been a voice of accountability in Georgia, and now I’m running to bring a science voice to Congress.

A science voice in Washington means having someone who will fight for us when funding for health issues that disproportionately impact our community is under threat.

On this day 50 years ago, Mike Schmidt homered in four consecutive at-bats as the Phillies overcame an 11-run deficit to defeat the Cubs 18-16 in 10 innings ⚾ It is still tied for the largest comeback in NL history 👏

Take it from the only peer-reviewed scientist in the U.S. Senate: science plays a critical part in nearly every aspect of our lives.  The Trump administration’s attacks on science are an attack on all of us.

A measles outbreak in South Carolina (993 cases, 20 hospitalizations, 5 months) cost an estimated $35.5M- about 6.7% of the state public health budget! Vaccinating the same group? Just $66K–$134K. Every $1 spent on vaccines could’ve saved $536. Prevention isn’t just smarter- it’s dramatically cheaper. Put another way, more measles outbreaks means higher taxes - for everyone. 🤷🏽‍♂️ americanactionforum.org/week…

16 years ago the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, lowering insurance costs across the nation. 📽️ @VoteShaughnessy explains how in 2026 "over 2 million Americans have lost health insurance" because of Republicans—and how we fight back.

Senator Fetterman will be the deciding vote for Markwayne Mullin’s nomination to lead DHS. Call his office and ask him to vote NO. 202-224-4254
If Rand is a no and every other Republican is a yes, Mullin would need a Dem to support him to get out of committee and to the floor. Fetterman has said he would support him.

No other industry… except firearms.
Since 1986, Big Pharma has faced zero liability for vaccine injuries. Zero. No other industry gets that deal. My bill, the End the Vaccine Carveout Act, strips that special protection and holds them accountable like every other company in America. No one should be above the law.
