People with obesity deserve equal protection in drug safety. New research presented today at #ObesityWeek2025 show that:

➡️ 86% said the FDA should require obesity-specific testing before drug approval.
➡️ 88% reported feeling angry about this gap in oversight.
➡️ 99% agreed that manufacturers must update labels when obesity alters drug response.

This isn’t a niche issue—it’s a public health gap. Read more: https://t.co/sGTZZydkY5

Weight bias is everywhere and it causes real harm. We’re taking a stand to build a world where everyone is treated with respect, dignity and fairness. That means speaking up, learning more, showing compassion and pushing for real change. Take the Pledge. https://t.co/OLfymjLCB5

@ObesityAction The OAC is showing up to share facts and challenge the weight bias that still shows up in headlines, photos and soundbites. Learn more about weight bias in media: https://t.co/VfQCC0Uhzb

The media doesn’t just report stories — it shapes them. Too often, that means reinforcing harmful weight stereotypes. That’s why @ObesityAction is proud to exhibit for the Stop Weight Bias campaign at AHCJ Health Journalism 2025 in LA, May 29–June 1. https://t.co/fihA33yaaN

Did you know some medications, like Rexulti, are commonly prescribed to people with obesity—but weren’t properly tested on them?

This isn’t just an oversight. It’s a dangerous form of weight bias. People with obesity deserve safe, effective treatment. https://t.co/kQKZW5HxKx

Thank you so much for your continued support and for standing with us to end weight bias! #StopWeightBias

It’s #PatientExperienceWeek—a time to celebrate respectful, inclusive care. But for many, especially people with obesity, healthcare doesn’t feel safe. 1 in 5 adults face weight bias from providers. Let’s do better: https://t.co/zLRn9NCsjg

Weight doesn’t define worth—but bias at work says otherwise. People with higher weight face fewer opportunities, lower pay, and no federal protections. It’s time to end weight discrimination. Join the movement to #StopWeightBias: https://t.co/K7DZBAM6qy

During Jamfest at the Final Four, Charles Barkley mocked women in San Antonio—once again using his platform to make harmful comments about body size.

Send a message to his agents, TNT, and the NCAA. Let them know this behavior isn’t okay: https://t.co/aHEhpSaR6f

Charles Barkley has once again insulted the women of San Antonio. It’s not funny. It’s weight bias, and it’s harmful.

“When Barkley bashes the ‘fat’ women of San Antonio... he’s bashing all the women in San Antonio.” – Abby Lentz

October is #NationalBullyingPreventionMonth! 🙅‍♀️ Did you know only three states—Maine, New Hampshire and New York—protect against weight-based bullying in schools? This HAS to change.

Take #OACAction by sending a message to your state's leaders! https://t.co/1ZWrl00mnb
