@amyliztweets Had to wait six months for coverage due to “pre-existing migraines” but still had to pay the premiums for the coverage that was nonexistent.
WV Delegates @wvhouse,
As I prepare to drive to work this morning to provide medical care for our pediatric patients in WV, I know I do not have the freedom to drive 120 mph on the interstate because it could endanger the lives of other drivers.
The same applies to immunizations. I respect the right for people to have freedoms. But when freedom has the potential to endanger others, it is not freedom for other people in our society.
I am asking you to speak up for kids today who attend public/parochial/private schools and vote NO to HB 5105.
When we open the door for communicable diseases to occur, it will happen eventually. Maybe not tomorrow or next year. But it will happen eventually. You are risking that a child will become disabled or die by increasing their risk of contracting these preventable diseases.
I have many years left in my career to practice pediatric hospital medicine. Please....I don't want to be caring for a sick child with measles or polio and remember that it was this 2024 legislative session that opened the door for something like this to
occur.
Say no to HB 5105 today

@ash_in_wv I’m so frustrated with wv politics. We drive on roads that aren’t maintained but hey, let’s start a culture war instead of fixing real problems that we deal with daily.
The answer is that Major Haley is abroad, serving his country right now.
We know he thinks our troops are “suckers,” but this guy wouldn’t know service to his country if it slapped him in the face.
Women do not want your personal opinion on what we can or can't do with our bodies.
Instead, we want:
Equal pay for equal work.
Universal paid family leave.
Affordable child care.
High quality maternal care.
Full reproductive rights.
@learning_to_die@LauraRbnsn Contact your local Extension office. Or go online and have your kids check out “clover”. It is a new virtual 4-H program https://t.co/7w5ZcNMryw
Every time I see someone posting on Facebook that schools should be teaching kids how to put buttons on shirts or how to portion meals I feel like I'm the only person who remembers 4-H.
Seriously enroll your kids in 4-H, it's awesome.
