If you were waiting for a sign to get involved in the movement to #EndGunViolence, this is it.

Text ACT to 644-33 and join us.

Uvalde

[Moms Demand Action @MomsDemand]

Our children deserve #MoreThanThoughtsAndPrayers from our elected leaders to end to protect them from gun violence—in their schools and communities.

If you agree, join the movement to #EndGunViolence: Text ACT to 644-33.

[Everytown @Everytown]

We’re devastated for Uvalde, Texas.

Once again, gun violence has forced its way into our schools, leaving nothing but devastation, trauma, and tragedy in its wake.

We can’t afford to wait for action — we must demand it now.

Join us: Text ACT to 644-33.

After spending 3 days away from my kids I get to hug them today. Many parents in Texas can’t. @HawleyMO, @RoyBlunt, @RepAnnWagner, maybe we should talk about #GunControl next. Our kids are too important. (2/2)

[Kara Mayes, MD @karahepp]

I’ve spent the last several days in Washington DC for @AAFP_advocacy Summit. Yesterday, I met with staff members from the offices of @HawleyMO, @RoyBlunt, and @RepAnnWagner. Talked about #telemedicine, #access to healthcare, and #mentalhealth . #fightforfammed #FMAS2022 (1/2)

This letter was delivered to Councilwoman Day (@ritadays1) today on behalf of 585 physicians in the St. Louis area to convey our deep disappointment in the events that took place at the St. Louis County Council meeting July 27. 1/ https://t.co/qTrqqTLK9f

@GerardFCraft I think restaurants are phase 2, not phase 1B tier 2. I also think these phases and tiers were made as confusing as possible and we could have probably just gone with 1-8 instead of having numbers and letters and phases and tiers...

[Kara Mayes, MD @karahepp]

@cheppermann @mhmaviation Yes. Too bad the paint along is for age 12-18.

[Kara Mayes, MD @karahepp]

@DTylerKingDO @ObesityMedicine ABOM has a search function for physicians who have certified. It’s definitely worth checking to see who is near you!

@jk_rowling here’s Sophie’s first drawing for #TheIckabog book, a map of Cornucopia. More to come from my talented 9yo. Thanks for such a fun non-screen activity!

[Kara Mayes, MD @karahepp]

@cheppermann I could, but instead of a free cup of coffee I prefer to buy a yummier latte. :)

[AAFP @aafp]
