THE SENATE STAYS 🔵 This couldn’t happen without PA! Grateful for every vote, every donation, every phone call + door knock that got us here. 🥰 Now let’s finish the job by re-electing @ReverendWarnock on Dec. 6 so I can *officially* be your 51st vote 💯

Georgia is still hugely important for dems. 1. @ReverendWarnock is a massive star 2. 2024 is a harder senate map and this is a down payment. 3. It’s pretty clear an extra senate vote would have been helpful to dems over last 2 years

NEW: Democrats' hold on Senate control paves the way for Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer to spend two more years confirming liberal and diverse judges, without any threat of Republican obstruction. One of the low-key successes of this presidency so far. nbcnews.com/politics/congr…

In the wake of the ruling, AAP will continue to support our chapters as states consider policies affecting access to abortion care, and pediatricians will continue to support our patients. Full statement: aap.org/en/news-room/n… 3/3

This decision carries grave consequences for our adolescent patients, who already face many more barriers than adults in accessing comprehensive reproductive healthcare services and abortion care. 2/3

Today’s Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade means that the once Constitutionally protected right to access an abortion is no longer guaranteed nationwide. 1/3

The AAP applauds the @US_FDA’s decision to remove all JUUL products from the market, marking a major victory for public health. Eliminating these appealing and addictive products from the market is a long overdue step to protect youth. 1/2

Went to the House Oversight Committee yesterday to talk about gun violence! Stood by Dr. Guerrero, a Uvalde pediatrician who lost five patients in the tragic shooting. #ThisIsOurLane

Dr. Roy Guerrero addresses the pediatricians who came out to support him as he delivered testimony on gun violence as a health care crisis. The doctor lost 5 patients in the school shooting, with one of his patients - a survivor - also testifying today on Capitol Hill.

As a public health epidemic, gun violence is preventable using clinical and public health approaches. AAP's Gun Safety and Injury Prevention page has professional tools and resources as well as information for families and communities aap.org/en/news-room/c…

The @US_FDA’s recent proposal for banning menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars is an important step in protecting young people from the deadly cycle of tobacco use and we continue to urge the agency to finalize the proposed rules without delay on #WorldNoTobaccoDay.

President Joe Biden's visit to Uvalde, Texas, on Sunday is his second trip in as many weeks to comfort a community in mourning after staggering loss. He and first lady Jill Biden will meet families of 21 killed at the Robb Elementary School massacre. apne.ws/fT5pjQr

I was in high school when the horrific Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting happened. I distinctly remember talking about it with my classmates. We were all heartbroken, angry, frustrated, and scared. I can’t believe we are still here ten years later. #BanAssaultWeaponsNow

Gun violence is THE leading cause of death for children and teens in America. We should be able to feel safe in our schools, in our homes, and in our communities. We don't have to live like this. Join us in the movement to #EndGunViolence: Text STUDENTS to 644-33.

If Ted Cruz and Greg Abbott really cared about the children who were killed in Texas today, they would CANCEL their speaking gigs at the NRA conference in Houston this coming Friday.

Uvalde teachers Eva Mireles, a bilingual special education teacher, and Irma Garcia, a mother-of-four, died trying to save students from gun violence. They were forced to stand up to a gunman because GOP Senators have refused to stand up to the gun lobby. independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…
