I agree that there is politics involved in judicial decisions. I do not think that gives an excuse to either a Democratic or Republican administration to ignore those court orders.

On behalf of everyone whose unbearable weight of medical debt has been relieved, thank you to the hospitals, doctors, and other providers who have partnered with Undue Medical Debt. Your efforts have changed lives.

While the Trump administration continues to ignore patients’ plight by gutting essential medical programs, including Medicaid, FQHCs, and Planned Parenthood, tax credits and subsidies for the Exchange, Connecticut is taking an active role…

This agency is spending money like stone drunk sailors.

At your confirmation hearing, you [promised] that you would get DHS out of the headlines. We took you at your word - but nothing has really gotten better…
