RFK Jr’s budget would slash $33B from HHS, impose Medicaid work rules, and shut down critical agencies. It’s not about “waste”—it’s about gutting public health. Read why this matters now: tjoe.co/ont5p6 #HealthPolicy #Medicaid #HHSbudget #HealthcareCrisis
HOLY CRAP. RFK, Jr. raises his voice and accuses @murray.senate.gov of "presiding over the destruction of the health of the American people." #HHSBudget #HHSBudgetHearing
Thank you, @murray.senate.gov, for standing up for #HHS funding and employees - and for US science and biomedical research. #NIH #CDC #FDA

So much gaslighting by both Kennedys today - Senator Kennedy and Secretary Kennedy. Sen Kennedy focused on "dead people" and "prisoners" "getting grants." He also claims federal employees living in million-dollar homes are getting grants (??). #HHSBudget #HHSBudgetHearing
RFK, Jr., says they "have not cut any clinical trials" at #NIH. What says the NIH community?

@altnih4science.bsky.social
RFK, Jr. says that US girls are "reaching puberty six (6) years early" and teenage boys "have the sperm count of a 60-year-old man."
Anyone wanna #FactCheck that??

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. defended deep budget cuts during contentious congressional hearings yesterday. He cited Elon Musk's involvement in shaping the cuts, acknowledging some were reversed. Lawmakers questioned the legality & specifics of the cuts. #HHSbudget #News
So glad that @thebeat.msnbc.com @arimelber.bsky.social covered the Senate #HELP #HHSBudget hearing tonight.
Senator @alsobrooks.senate.gov asks RFK, Jr. about terminated working scientists at HHS and RFK, Jr. says no working scientists were RIF'd. Maybe he should watch this. #HHSBudget

#HELP
Share your #HHS #NIH stories with these Senate #HELP members, especially if you're their constituent. Let them know about your terminated position or terminated or frozen grant funding. Let them know why IDCs are important. They need your stories.

Please ask RFK, Jr if he has a concept of the *cost* of "healthy/whole foods" and the concept of food deserts and how the FY26 plans address this. Ty.

One thing is clear. RFK, Jr, has NO IDEA how HHS works or how the budget works. (Or how fluoride works.)

Did he just say "Indian country" and refer to "distant locations"?

Rep Aderholt already making my blood pressure rise. He's from the 4th District in Alabama. Feel free to contact his office to tell him what you think about the value of NIH funding. #NIHBudget #HHSBudget

988's LGBTQ Youth subnetwork provides support through a few centers with specially trained counselors. This is important because many #LGBTQ people have had at least one discriminatory experience with a #MentalHealth professional that deters them from seeking future help. #HHSBudget #FRFK
