Thoughts are my own and don't represent the views of my employer. Passionate about advocacy, dogs and drug pricing and access. Not necessarily in that order.

"As a scientist and NFL widow, I am furious about a recent NFL Players Association-funded CTE study. It suggests ‘awareness’ of CTE contributes to former players’ suicide, and it’s not good science." https://t.co/UP2T4wijF4

Should be a must watch for every single person who uses healthcare and prescription drugs.

NEW: Insurance giants are hiding billions meant to lower Americans’ drug costs.

Our year-long investigation details how CVS, UnitedHealth, and Cigna created shell companies to evade reform efforts and hide payments received from drugmakers.

🚨Take Action: The House just passed a bill slashing Medicaid & ACA funding — threatening care for millions, including those living with #MS.
Now it’s up to the Senate. Urge your Senators to reject these cuts. Your voice matters.
Act now: https://t.co/3zKcJyNaQU

Eighty years ago, an ad in the New York Times sparked a movement. Sylvia Lawry, driven by her brother’s struggle with MS, refused to accept “no cure.”

Today, we honor her legacy—one that has fueled hope for generations. Read Sylvia's story: https://t.co/X2Jz3OhxTS

MS activists are on Capitol Hill today fighting for MS research funding and to protect Medicaid

[Holly @HollyfromOH]

MSRP was zeroed out in the CDMRP Budget last night. 70,000 military vets live with MS, Congress should do better. MSRP means hope to 1 M living with MS. MS Activists you’re up!

[Bari Talente @BTalente]

The CR to keep the govt funded past this Fri will strip funding from DoD CDMRP research- which supports the military, veterans and all Americans. Time to contact Congress and urge them to protect CDMRP. This Research!America letter is a place to start. https://t.co/22L1TESdUQ

[ALS Advocacy @alsadvocacy]

Lyle Ostrow on fb has spelled out a real and imminent threat to DOD CDMRP research funding for ALS (a big deal). Please read and act. Nobody knows more about this program and the good it does than Lyle.
