More on Health Care
San Francisco – Congresswomen Nancy Pelosi, Jackie Speier, and Barbara Lee will join health care providers and Bay Area residents for a press conference on the harmful impact of Republicans’ plans to dismantle the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Make America Sick Again. The ACA has served as a pillar of economic and health security for millions of Americans across the country since its enactment, ensuring that health care is a right, not a privilege.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Jackie Speier (CA-14) yesterday joined her co-chairs on the bipartisan Childhood Cancer Caucus in applauding the House of Representative’s passage of the H.R. 3381, the Childhood Cancer STAR Act. The STAR Act addresses four major concerns facing the pediatric cancer community today: Survivorship, Treatment, Access, and Research.
All of the survivorship provisions in the STAR Act, many of which Rep. Speier has been fighting for since 2011, have been among her top priorities during her time in Congress.
