U.S. adults under 30 now trust information from social media almost as much as from national news outlets Half of 18- to 29-year-olds say they have at least some trust in the information they get from social media sites.

Essentially 100% of patients I see for substance use are on Medicaid (or uninsured & working to get on Medicaid). Most cannot afford their lifesaving medications without coverage & I’ve seen devastating results from coverage lapses in the past. This bill’s new “requirements” are going to kill people

New Report: U.S. drug overdose deaths rise again after hopeful decline The latest 12-month report from the CDC showed 1,400 more deaths in January of this year compared with the year prior.
