In 2023, after a night out with friends, Priti Langer began experiencing heavy chest pains. She knew something was wrong, but after calling 911 and arriving at the hospital, she encountered skepticism from medical professionals at both steps. 🧵

When an EKG revealed she was having a heart attack, she was finally treated with urgency. Today, Priti is a member of the @GoRedforWomen Class of Survivors, sharing her story to raise awareness for the need for better research and treatment for heart disease. 👇

@NCITorg @Voices4HK That’s why we’re calling on the DC Council and @MayorBowser to support restoring Paid Family Leave to the FY2027 budget!

Community blood pressure screening stations help people take control and access info about their health in the places they already visit. That's why we're proud to of our work with Fox Chapel Elementary School to bring one to the school. @MCPS
