It's unconscionable for even one veteran to be left behind. We're going to serve every veteran who served every single one of us. We're going to invest in their education, job training, housing, mental & physical health care. That's a promise this country must keep, and we will.

Our efforts made more veterans eligible for mental health services but new reporting shows the VA has done little to spread the word and ensure these veterans get this lifesaving care. It's unacceptable. We know what's wrong, we know how to fix it, and now we need the VA to act.

In the midst of a suicide crisis that claims the lives of more than 20 veterans a day (14 of whom hadn't accessed the VA), I worked with members of both parties to write, pass, and sign into law legislation that expanded access to mental health care for veterans.

We will fight these dangerous efforts with everything we’ve got in legislatures across the country, in the courts, and at the ballot box. We will win. Take action now by supporting organizations like @PPFA that provide critical health care to millions. https://www.weareplannedparenthood.org/onlineactions/cOJVhOyrzkq4uBcxVekXFA2?tabs=true …

HB 314 is not only unconstitutional - it's a radical attack on women across Alabama and America. We won't back down when it comes to fully protecting Roe v. Wade, fighting dangerous efforts to roll back reproductive health care and defending a woman’s right to access an abortion.

Let’s support rural America by listening to and partnering with rural communities to invest in hospitals. Expand Medicaid in those states that haven't. Take power from the hands of insurance companies and return it to people with universal, guaranteed, high-quality health care.

See you soon, Iowa! Looking forward to being back.https://twitter.com/hellokatepayne/status/1128297315750617088 …
