#House passes #bill to extend #healthcare #subsidies in defiance of #GOP leaders

In a remarkable rebuke of Republican leadership, the House passed #legislation Thursday, 230-196, that would extend expired #health care subsidies for those who get coverage through the Affordable Care Act [ #ACA] as “renegade” GOP lawmakers joined essentially all #Democrats in voting for the measure.

#TBT | From Then to Now 💪🏽

🗣️ 20+ years in the fitness industry—and there were times my personal journey with clinical depression and sobriety brought real challenges. The support of friends and the medical community was a lifesaver.

Now 11 years into recovery, I’m thankful for this community, for the path I’m on, and for the opportunity to keep moving forward and support others on theirs. One day at a time. 🙏🏽

Amazing if true and if it works in humans.

“The team administered a single shot of E. americana intravenously to mice with colorectal cancer, and it completely eliminated tumors in every treated animal. What's more, the response wasn’t just rapid but appeared to provide ongoing protection. When the mice were later re-exposed to cancer cells, none developed new tumors, suggesting the treatment had triggered long-lasting immune memory.”
