[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

My wife, Dr. Carolina Reyes, has saved lives her entire career as a high-risk OBGYN. California will be fortunate to have her as our First Lady.

“Xavier Becerra has demonstrated a deep and sustained commitment to improving access to care, protecting patients and supporting physicians throughout his career in public service,” said René Bravo, M.D., president of CMA, which endorsed Becerra for California governor.

“I’ve spent my life taking care of families affected by homelessness, by having family members in prison through drug addiction and mental health issues,” said Dr. @SionRoy. “And what I know is that our safety net has a problem.” https://t.co/6DsMR8yBAe

CMA’s sponsored bills on e-bike safety, AI deepfakes & automatic downcoding advanced through #CALeg last week after their first committee hearings. Special thanks to Dr. Francois Lalonde, Dr. Raminder Gill and Dr. Anna Yap (below) for presenting testimony. https://t.co/tFCDzetA2w

Check out photos from yesterday's Legislative Advocacy Day and read our full recap at https://t.co/A3JIJa2JHj

[California Medical Association @CMAdocs]

#SB1146 by Sen. Gonzalez cracks down on the growing use of AI to create fraudulent advertisements for health-related products and establishes simple, commonsense transparency requirements for such advertisements if they use AI to generate a heath care provider’s likeness.

[California Medical Association @CMAdocs]

#AB2431 by @AsmDarshana protects physician practices & patient access to care by prohibiting the automatic claims downcoding without reviewing clinical information supporting the billed service. AB 2431 ensures that physicians are paid for the level of care they actually provide.

[California Medical Association @CMAdocs]

Today physicians are lobbying for #AB2346 by @AsmLoriDWilson, which addresses the rapid rise in serious e-bike injuries by implementing commonsense policies to modernize California’s e-bike safety standards, protect children and ensure our streets remain safe for everyone.

[Katherine Boroski @kboroski]

At @cmadocs 52nd Annual Legislative Advocacy Day, chief lobbyist @StuThompson tells the hundreds of physician and medical student attendees "the most powerful advocacy tool CMA has is the people in this room."

[California Medical Association @CMAdocs]

White coated physicians are headed to the swing space to meet with their legislators! #CMADocs

[Eric Swalwell @ericswalwell]

Proud to earn the @CMAdocs endorsement! From the ER to the exam room, they know what’s at stake. As governor, I’ll have their backs like they’ve had ours.

[California Medical Association @CMAdocs]

As Attorney General, @AGRobBonta fought for fairness, justice and accountability within our health care system. That's why CMA believes California is stronger with @RobBonta as Attorney General.

[Physicians for a Healthy California @PHCDocs]

Medical students in California are stepping up to serve vulnerable communities, and PHC is helping make that possible. Support the next generation of physicians on #GivingTuesday by donating to PHC and helping expand access to care across California: https://t.co/jsuWkBWaGV

[SDCMS @SDCMS]

We're deeply saddened by the passing of an extraordinary physician leader - Dr. Dave Bazzo. He served as President of SDCMS and CAFP, an educator at UCSD Med School, and as team doctor for numerous local athletic organizations. Popular and respected, Dave will be dearly missed.

[Marilyn Heine @MarilynHeineMD]

“The AMA and physicians across the country are deeply concerned about this legislation, its impact on our patients, and what it means for healthcare in the” US.

⁦@BobbyMukkamala⁩, MD, AMA Prez explains why the reconciliation bill is unacceptable.

[Dustin Corcoran @CMA_CEO]

@TomSteyer Thank you for your leadership and partnership Tom. Prop. 56 was an incredible success and we couldn’t have done it without you.

[Tom Steyer @TomSteyer]

Prop 56 passed 8 years ago, raising California's cigarette tax by $2/pack. Critics said it was too aggressive. But new data shows it worked: quit rates rose, health outcomes improved, and public dollars funded prevention.

I co-chaired the Yes on 56 campaign, and we made it happen, after decades of failure.

Ideas matter, but action is necessary.

[California Medical Association @CMAdocs]

Today’s vote reverses years of progress to ensure that vulnerable patients have access to the care they need & deserve. Trillions in Medicaid cuts will cause millions of Californians to lose health care coverage, which will be devastating to patients & drive up health care costs.

[Shawn Martin @rshawnm]

"In Alaska, where a greater share of our population depends on Medicaid than almost anywhere else in the country, these cuts would be catastrophic. Rural hospitals would close. Preventable conditions would become fatal. More people would delay care, get sicker and die. And the costs would still land on all of us."

Nearly HALF of all kids in the U.S. get their health care through Medicaid. These cuts will leave parents on the hook for lifesaving care – stop the cuts. #SaveMedicaid https://t.co/hMtDFhEYg7
