Medicare Open Enrollment starts today.
1.1 million seniors have already signed up for Medicare's GLP-1 Bridge: obesity treatment for $50 a month. That's how much people need it.
Now make it permanent, and extend it to everyone left out. #MedicareOpenEnrollment #GLP1

Shut Delaney Hall down, NOW.
Today, @RepMenendez and I went to Delaney Hall because of the inhumane conditions that have only gotten worse.
What I saw and heard is absolutely unacceptable.

It’s increasingly clear the “voter files purge” by Texas AG Paxton is really an effort to suppress the vote, particularly for Latino voters. But they’re messing with the wrong “abuelitas”.
The nation's oldest Latino civil rights organization, LULAC, was targeted in voter fraud raids led by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. The organization called Paxton's actions "a serious violation of civil rights of Latino citizens," in a letter first obtained by @CBSNews.

I was honored to attend the @LULAC Gala and speak about my time in public service and our critical health equity work at HHS.
It's imperative that we address the systemic barriers hindering Latino communities' access to quality health care, education, and economic opportunities.

It was great meeting with @LULAC today about my bill to support colonias and farmworker communities.
Colonias are communities near the border that lack basic amenities like water and sewage.
My bill would make it easier for them to access government programs and resources.

Thank you @LULAC for inviting me to talk about saving democracy which includes passing trifecta of voting rights bills—John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, Freedom to Vote Act & Native American Voting Rights Act—at 1st opportunity. This is how we beat back voter suppression.
It was great having @LeslieProll, @mjfrias, @Sandalow & @NAACP Tyler Sterling on our Voting Rights panel this afternoon to talk about the urgency of diverse cultural representation in democracy as we exercise our vote just months ahead of the 2024 election. #LULAC24

Latino communities have been disproportionately harmed by the digital divide and face new risks from bias in AI systems. I was honored to speak with @LULAC CEO Juan Proaño to discuss how technology can equitably serve all of America.
In conversation with @LULAC CEO Juan Proaño, @DavidsonNTIA addressed the technology divide facing Latinos and other communities, with an emphasis on the advancement of artificial intelligence and the risks and benefits rooted in the emerging technology. #LULAC24
