We recognize this election cycle is an impossible moment. Our endorsement of Harris is not a full agreement on every issue; it's about strategic necessity and the defense of our community's future from Donald Trump’s Agenda. Dive deeper into our statement: https://t.co/jwzVA4Neso

They’ll get attacked for this, but it’s worth actually reading the full & *nuanced* endorsement by Muslim American group Emgage for Harris over Trump before you actually attack them. (“This endorsement is not an agreement with Harris on all issues” - especially, obviously, Gaza!)

Emgage Action supports President Biden’s decision to step down as the 2024 nominee. We recognize the necessity for new leadership that can unify the Party, advance the best interest of voters and uphold our pluralistic democracy.

No matter the results in #NY16 and no matter your politics, we should all be able to agree that a super PAC spending $14 MILLION on a Congressional race is not democracy.

It’s not. At all.

CHWs are vital for universal health coverage (UHC)! Undeniable evidence shows that CHWs deliver primary health care in a way that improves access, increases equity, and saves lives. That’s why at #UNGA78 we’re advocating for #proCHWs) to be the norm worldwide.

[Last Mile Health @lastmilehealth]

As the UN High-Level Meeting on #UHC kicks off today, we echo the #MonroviaCalltoAction in urging leaders to fund, scale, and strengthen community health programs as an integral part of primary healthcare for the realization of #HealthForAll.

Thrilled to see the #ProCHW movement elevated in NYT this morning! Cheers to @join_chic for all you’re doing to elevate this to the world stage.

[Community Health Impact Coalition @join_chic]

Why is it important to make #proCHWs the norm before the next global pandemic occurs? Because CHWs help maintain the continuity of essential health services during pandemics. To find out how read this CHIC research study: https://t.co/PIkB1OiWmn

What changes are necessary to ensure the legal recognition & protection of #CHWs? @Angella436876 from Malawi told us:
•Official recognition and integration into healthcare structures.
•Standardize responsibilities & qualifications required.
•Training & accreditation programs.

[Community Health Impact Coalition @join_chic]

The COVID pandemic showed us that CHWs play a critical role in pandemic prevention, preparedness & response. But to reach their full potential, CHWs must be integrated into health systems. How do we do this? Join us at a pre #UNGA78 webinar and find out: https://t.co/w4aDYiBcdb

Today, Fred Hampton should be celebrating his 75th birthday.

Instead, he was assassinated by the federal government.

He should still be here, leading the movement for Black liberation.

We remember his life and his legacy.
