Democrats on the House Oversight committee are pressing the Biden administration to go further to ensure that patients have easier access to more free contraception.
An analysis released Friday from ranking member Rep. Jamie Raskin’s (D-Md.) staff is the latest instance of Democrats in the House and Senate urging the White House to change agency guidance so more types of birth control are more easily accessible.

DeSantis says his health care plan would ‘supersede’ ObamaCare
GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis said his health care plan will replace ObamaCare if he is elected to the White House, promising that his full plan will be released in the spring.
NBC’s Kristen Welker pressed DeSantis, the Florida governor, on former President Trump’s vow to repeal and replace ObamaCare — a promise that he failed to keep during his time in the White House.
“Here's what I will do. What I think they're going to need to do is have a plan that wi...
North Carolina Medicaid expansion makes nearly 600K now eligible for coverage
Hundreds of thousands of people in North Carolina are eligible for Medicaid benefits beginning Friday, almost a decade after ObamaCare let states expand eligibility.
Advocates say North Carolina's expansion will give much-needed aid to adults who previously earned too much to be eligible for Medicaid but not enough to benefit from federal subsidies to help them afford private health insurance.
Medicaid coverage includes doctor visits, check-ups, eme...

"America will have one of the best Healthcare Plans anywhere in the world. Right now it has one of the W...

If they like their ObamaCare cash, let lower-income earners keep their ObamaCare cash
Despite President Joe Biden’s best efforts to convince the public that inflation has peaked, anyone who has shopped for groceries lately knows we’re not out of the woods.
And unfortunately, the pain is about to extend beyond the dairy aisle.
Next year, Americans are projected to suffer the largest jump in health care costs in more than a decade. A recent Mercer study projects a 6.5 percent increase in the cost of health plans. Although a majorit...
Feehery: 5 ways Democrats can beat Trump
It now looks inevitable that Donald Trump will be reelected to the White House, mostly because the Democrats have done a terrible job of running against him.
I would prefer Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) over Trump because he is more conservative. But in a match-up against President Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, California Gov. Gavin Newsom or just about any other Democrat, I would vote for Trump.
