Good Trouble:
RFK Jr just tweeted the following message: “If you know a regulation that's making our health system worse, not better-tell us. Submit your ideas at regulations.gov/deregulation. We're listening. In order to Make America Healthy Again, providers and caretakers must have the critical opportunity to focus on preventing and treating chronic diseases. Their time and talent should not be spent doing unnecessary or burdensome paperwork”
