In December, I told you about how Trump’s Department of Education is stripping nurses of our professional status and making school more expensive. From now until March 2, we need you to raise your voice and submit a public comment: federalregister.gov/document…
As the only Democratic nurse in Congress, I remember how expensive pursuing my degree was. And now, Trump’s Education Department is moving to make it even more expensive. Here’s how you can help.

Does patient provider concordance matter? Maybe. We need more robust study designs. We also need to diversify the health workforce and improve communication. @emilyswlau #AHA25
