Thank you @POTUS for signing the Kay Hagan Tick Reauthorization Act into law, which strengthens our nation’s response to Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. Together, we are advancing better detection, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention for Americans affected by tick-borne diseases.
Thank you to @SenatorCollins, Rep. Chris Smith, and everyone who championed this bipartisan legislation.
May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, a time to recognize the growing impact of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses on American families and communities. Lyme disease now affects an estimated 476,000 Americans each year and remains one of the most common vector-borne diseases in the United States.
I recently wrote to the House Energy & Commerce Committee urging support for reauthorization of the Kay Hagan Tick Act to strengthen research, surveillance, early detection, treatment, and public awareness efforts related to tick-borne disease.
Thank you to Chairman @RepGuthrie, Ranking Member @FrankPallone, and the House Energy & Commerce Committee for advancing this important bipartisan legislation.

HHS is targeting Lyme disease, alpha-gal syndrome, and other tickborne illnesses. @CDCgov and @NIH awarded nearly $3 million to test new approaches that target ticks where they feed and reproduce.
The goal: fewer ticks, fewer bites and fewer tickborne diseases.

Fraud has no place in health care.
That's why @VP Vance and @DrOzCMS are uprooting fraud and saving American taxpayers BILLIONS.
âś… $2.2 BILLION taxpayer dollars saved
âś… 760,000 phantom enrollments removed
Removing the fraud from the ACA Marketplace isn’t just a fiscally smart action for CMS to take — it’s the right one.
CMS and @VP Vance’s @WHFraudTF are saving taxpayers $2.2 BILLION by removing phantom enrollees and bringing trust back into our healthcare programs.

Last week, @SecKennedy joined @SecRollins, @LaraLeaTrump, and @JudgeJeanine to announce more progress taken to advance the Trump administration's mandate to end animal cruelty.
HHS is moving forward to put human-based methods at the center of biomedical research and replace unnecessary animal testing.

.@SecKennedy on how the @ARPA_H projects announced today will keep the United States competitive for clinical research:
âś… New technology to be more predictive and careful in less time
âś… Elimination of delays and duplications which do not improve safety or science
âś… Reuseable infrastructure that allows more American sites to conduct trials outside of major medical centers
Today in Austin, Texas, @SecKennedy joined @ARPA_H to unveil bold new initiatives aimed at transforming how clinical trials are conducted across the United States and retain biomedical research.
“It’s not just economic benefits that we’re losing; it’s the control of our healthcare, of our health. Our international leadership in biomedical research…We cannot afford to lose it.”

.@SecKennedy on why the Trump Administration is breaking free from the status quo — and how improving clinical research can help:
“All the things that Republicans and Democrats have talked about for the last 20 [years], have fought about…are just about changing the deck chairs around on the Titanic — if we don’t solve the big problem of chronic disease.”

“We have this healthcare system that is a trainwreck.”
@SecKennedy lays out the challenges:
❌ We spend 3X more than European countries per capita for healthcare
❌ Worst health outcomes and highest chronic disease burden in the world
❌ 77% of children do not qualify for military service
The Trump Administration is turning the tide. âś…

.@SecKennedy: “The system we have today takes far too long, it costs too much, and it asks too much of the patients. Clinical development for a drug or a biologic can take a decade today and cost $1-2 billion — and 90% of the drugs that start that process fail.”
