BREAKING: The federal funding bill that is apparently close to becoming law would slash more than $1 billion from DoD health research, including cutting in half the money for a program that experts tell me has produced life-saving treatments.

"Women are not without electoral or political power."
That's what the Trump-appointed Supreme Court majority wrote in their decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and rob American women of their reproductive freedom.
Today, let's show them how true that is.

Think that heart disease is primarily something men need to worry about? #ReadMyLips - Think again. There are many barriers in screening women for their #hearthealth, such as awareness and medication adherence/routines. Read our recent blog post: swhr.org/getting-serious-abo…

.@CBSNews covers the @WhiteHouse's initiative to eliminate hepatitis C in the US. AASLD has been and continues to be active supporters of this initiative and calls on Congress to adopt legislation to allocate funds to eliminate #hepatitis C. aasld.org/news/aasld-calls-c…
Hepatitis C kills more than 15,000 Americans every year, even though it is curable.
But the oral antiviral drugs cost tens of thousands of dollars. Now, a new White House initiative is trying to wipe out the disease in the U.S., reports @DrLaPook. cbsn.ws/3Op8I9r
We've come along way since 1993 but there's still more work to be done!
#DYK it wasn't until 1993 that #women and minorities were required to be included in NIH-funded #research?
In 1990, the Society for Women’s Health Research was founded to change the culture of research. Dive into the history of #WomensHealthResearch at swhr.org/timeline.

Thank you @POTUS for calling for capping #insulin for people in private insurance. People with #diabetes cannot wait longer for this help @TheEndoSociety bit.ly/3HDqpP0
As part of the @SWHR board, I'm proud of the organization’s ongoing work to advance #womenshealth across #healthcare, from clinical trial inclusion to real-world patient outcomes. This #GivingTuesday, I invite you to join me in supporting SWHR: shwr.org/donate.

#DYK that while women make up more than half of the US population, current funding for women’s health research is not proportionate to funding for diseases that impact men or that impact both men and women?
