I will happily host any women running for national office as #InTheLadiesRoom podcast guests to talk #healthcare, #healthinsurance, #MedicareForAll & #WomensHealth. Today I’m welcoming family physician @DrChristineMann, #TX31 Congressional candidate. #MedTwitter @AMWADoctors
@DrKimSchrier (D-WA) is currently the only woman MD in Congress...& only the 3rd woman ever to serve in Congress. Non-voting delegate Donna Christiansen MD from the Virgin Islands was first, then @NanHayworth MD (R-NY) was 2nd. Several are running in 2020! #WomenInMedicinepic.twitter.com/5yVNUfdekj
