🔭 WATCH: Today, there are more scientists serving in elected office than at any point in America’s history. Founded in 2016, 314 Action has elected 700+ Democratic scientists across the country.

Vaccines and routine care like vitamin K are safe and effective. RFK Jr: By continuing to spew misinformation, you are actively putting newborns in danger.
It was great to spend time with fellow physicians in the Democratic Doctors Caucus during New Member Orientation. We’ve cared for patients in different parts of the country, but we’ve all seen what happens when people can’t afford the care they need.
In the ER back home in Arizona, I’ve seen patients wait until they couldn’t wait any longer because they were worried about the bill. I’ll carry that experience with me into Congress. I’m looking forward to working with this group and with colleagues in both parties to lower health care costs and help people get care before it becomes an emergency.
Over the last several months, I have had several frank conversations with both Dr. Overton and Mr. O’Neill about their visions, roles, and the lack of trust that exists due to broken promises and irresponsible decisions from other officials within the Administration. I appreciate their ongoing candid conversations. While I remain undecided on both of their nominations and am aware that other Republican members of the Committee are undecided as well, the Committee is moving forward with noticing their markup in the hopes of resolving their path forward one way or another this Congress.
Washington needs more people making decisions based on science, data, and facts — not politics. Excited to see how these engineers, scientists, and doctors help our country solve hard problems.
MAHA v MAGA. Looks like that marriage of convenience is at an end. The RFK Jr disciples actually thought he would be able to get Trump to put his wealthy donors at Big Food over their agenda. Can’t say we didn’t warn them.
The election is over. The work for Arizona is just beginning.
I’m ready to get to work lowering costs, protecting healthcare, and safeguarding our water.
I’m honored by the trust the voters have placed in me, and I’m committed to listening, working across the aisle, and delivering for Arizona’s First District.
No surprises here. RFK Jr. is the most dangerous and corrupt health secretary in history — he’s the grifter-in-chief and the MAHA agenda was always at odds with powerful special interests.
Money > MAHA in the White House.
BOMBSHELL: Calley Means in tell-all interview with Joe Rogan accuses Susie Wiles of letting industry lobbyists run the show and block RFK Jr's agenda.
“Susie said to me many times: ‘We need money for the midterms, Calley."

New members of Congress, who include a record number of Democratic doctors, nurses, scientists and engineers, will help shape the health agenda next year.
They are expected to intensify their oversight of RFK Jr. with newfound subpoena power. https://t.co/HlH2KVMMWH
🇺🇸 What's next for U.S. healthcare policy?
At #HLTHUSA, Senator Mark Kelly joins Shaughnessy Naughton of @314action, moderated by Dr. Vin Gupta, to discuss healthcare costs, access, reform + bipartisan solutions.
🗒️ Nov. 15 | 5:30 PM | Main Stage ➡️ https://t.co/XTcggwtPBD
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
With latest AP call, there are 3 new Dem doctors headed to the House.
-Amish Shah, ER - AZ-01
-Richard Pan, pediatrician - CA-06
-Adam Hamawy, surgeon - NJ-12
That brings total # of Dem docs in House to nine, which almost triples their numbers from 2024.

NEW: A record number of Democratic docs, nurses + scientist are headed to Washington after midterms, incl 2 w/ MDs to the Senate.
But what drove STEM wave may be more complicated than their credentials. @rachel_roubein, me + @caitlinsgilbert
