We are excited to announce three new cosponsors of H.R. 2144 #AccesstoGCs today! Thank you to @RepMullin, Gus Bilirakis and Carolyn B. Maloney for supporting this important bill. #GeneChat

We’re deeply concerned about the leaked #SCOTUS draft opinion that would overturn Roe and Casey and stand by our position statement on reproductive freedom, supporting the right of all individuals to make reproductive choices, including having access to safe abortion. #GeneChat

Thank you ASHG for your support of the #AccessToGCs bill, & for this great interview with Colleen A. Campbell. As Colleen notes, enacting H.R.2144/S.R.1450 can help reduce disparities in access to genetic counselors & quality genetics care. bit.ly/3NBPhIq #GeneChat
