National Nurses United - Nurses across the country are outraged by the Trump administration’s rollout of several policies attacking and endangering transgender Americans’ health, safety, and lives. President Donald Trump made clear during his campaign that this small group of people were a top target for demonization, and his policy agenda so far has demonstrated his willingness to not only target trans people with dangerous rhetoric, but also with dangerous policies not backed by science or medicine.cHealth care is a human right. Policies seeking to bar patients from accessing medically sound forms of health care, including gender-affirming care and reproductive care, are obvious and deliberate attempts to worsen, not improve, the lives of patients.
The Conversation - Americans consume more illicit drugs per capita than anyone else in the world; about 6% of the U.S. population uses them regularly. One such drug, fentanyl – a synthetic opioid that’s 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine – is the leading reason U.S. overdose deaths have surged in recent years. While the rate of fentanyl overdose deaths has dipped a bit recently, it’s still vastly higher than it was just five years ago.
