We applaud Brazilian President @LulaOficial for signing a decree that recommends the exclusion of ultra-processed products from the tax-exempt list of foods for the country’s upcoming tax reform. This was a critical win in the fight to discourage consuming unhealthy food.

Matt Myers has been an incredible partner for @BloombergDotOrg. Together, we’ve worked to reduce tobacco-related deaths and disease globally and domestically. His strong and steadfast leadership has helped save millions of lives, and we’re looking forward to building on our progress with Yolonda Richardson and her team.

[Senator Dick Durbin @SenatorDurbin]

The history books will rightly credit Matt Myers as being one of the greatest impediments to Big Tobacco’s efforts to addict kids. But I will always credit Matt w/ preventing suffering & saving countless lives.

I’m sad to see him leave, but the work he championed will continue.

Thank you for highlighting the success of the #MATAct, @POTUS!

The MAT Act is an example of what Congress, the @WhiteHouse and @ONDCP, and advocates can do when we all work toward a common goal – to prevent overdose deaths.

#SOTU #XtheXWaiver

[Overdose Prevention Initiative @ActionForOD]

Increasing access to #MOUD is a top priority for our program in 2023. We’re looking forward to working with @ONDCP and Congress to advance policies that will save lives.

#SOTU @IncubatorGHAI

[Overdose Prevention Initiative @ActionForOD]

The #MATAct has been endorsed by more than 260 lawmakers, 500 organizations, and now the @NYTimes.

The U.S. can't wait for #treatment access any longer. Congress must pass the MAT Act and #XtheXWaiver to save lives and prevent future overdose deaths.

When more people die from the food they eat than they do from war, normalcy needs to be redefined.

This #ParentsDay, we raise the importance of investing in good #nutrition during the #First1000Days window.

We're in a national baby formula crisis because a single plant went down in a highly concentrated industry with no excess capacity. You have to drive your head pretty far into the sand not to notice that market concentration is driving up prices & undermining supply chains.

@nytimes The headline that should’ve been written: President Biden and Congress move to pass national paid parental leave to help increase breastfeeding rates.

[Lucy M. Sullivan @lucymsullivan]

An extraordinary headline and an extraordinary policy failure.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Breaking News: President Biden invoked the Defense Production Act to increase baby formula supplies and offered U.S. planes to speed shipments from abroad as the country faces a shortage that has sown fear and frustration among parents. https://t.co/PrTJzvHNXY

I am still looking into FDA's handling of the infant formula recall, sparked by four infant hospitalizations (incl. 2 deaths).
