Support the EACH Act and Reproductive Justice for All

May 14, 2021
No matter how we feel about abortion, politicians shouldn’t be allowed to deny someone health coverage for it just because they are struggling financially. The EACH Act will guarantee coverage for abortion without restrictions based on how much money we have, how we are insured, or where we live.

Seven Years of Lyme

May 13, 2021
I'm not a layperson. I wasn't lost in the healthcare system. I know healthcare from the inside out. I have been a nurse for 17 years. I researched every doctor before scheduling an appointment. I prepared a list of questions and concerns for each doctor's visit. Yet the outcome was the same as any other patient's story that results in misdiagnosis.
