#PAHPA ensures more#heathcare professionals like nurses/doctors can be hired/trained when facing a#publichealth crisis. It ensures we have a robust supply of vaccines, equipment like gloves, hazmat suits, masks etc in our Strategic National Stockpiles located across the countryShow this thread -
I'd like to thank
@RepAnnaEshoo & my colleagues at@HouseCommerce for their attention to this issue. I cannot emphasize enough how critically important it is to reauthorize#PAHPA before it expires at the end of September.Show this thread
