I take care of children with #Medicaid in South Carolina, Lindsey Graham . They are not money launderers. They are kids with asthma, diabetes, seizures, heart disease. They are trying to survive. You are trying to stop them. If you can't help them, please don't hurt them.

My Senators Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott just voted to take health care access away from many of my patients and their families. They stripped health care from thousands of their own constituents. I'm having a really hard time coming to grips with that.

This bill will make South Carolina less prosperous and much sicker as it strips health care from thousands of your constituents. Remember that word, Lindsey Graham ? Constituents- the people you are supposed to be representing. You seem to have totally forgotten them.

Today's Call to Action: CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE THIS MORNING. Ask them to vote NO on the Big, Horrifically Bad Bill that will strip health care and healthy food from millions. Ask them to protect children. publications.aap.org/aapnews/news/3…

I just called my representative, Joe Wilson, to ask him to consider the impact of the Big, Horrifically Bad Bill on children in South Carolina. I asked him to vote no, to protect Medicaid and to protect children. Have you called your representative?

I don't think that I have ever been this afraid for my patients. Some may lose their health care access. Some may lose their hospitals. Some may lose their medications. And at the end of it all, it won't matter who had Medicaid and who didn't. Everyone loses.

You are a Senator for South Carolina, Tim Scott. My patients here in South Carolina don't care about tax cuts for the rich. They care about having health care and healthy food. You sold them out.

"We Can't Make Everyone 100% Happy" Speaker Johnson. But we CAN keep children healthy with access to health care. And we Can keep children fed with healthy foods. And we Can provide good education. We are simply CHOOSING to do none of those things.

2 patients. 1 with Medicaid. 1 with BCBS insurance. Child with Medicaid loses coverage along with thousands of others. The local hospital closes and doctors leave. Child with BCBS now has no access to care. Do you get it now?

Making a joke while you promote a bill that will take health care and healthy food away from thousands of your constituents. I have absolutely no idea how you sleep at night, Lindsey Graham

You forgot the part where you took health care access and healthy food away from the children living in your state, Lindsey Graham. You may be able to ignore that. My patients and their parents can't.

Absolutely awful day for the children in South Carolina who will lose their access to health care and healthy food (remember, that’s the state you claim to represent) because of this bill, Lindsey Graham. But sure, go ahead and celebrate.

As the US hits a catastrophic milestone with the highest number of measles cases since the disease was declared eradicated, it is a step in the right direction to see the AAP and others stand up to say that this is not OK and we won't pretend that it is. publications.aap.org/aapnews/news/3…

Some people have very bad - even life threatening - reactions to penicillin. It's rare but it's very real. But do they then go on a life's mission to completely ban it so no one can ever again receive antibiotics? No Same should apply to vaccines.

A six month old baby sits in a safer car seat today than anyone over thirty. If I had young children today I would refuse all car seats. Do you see how stupid that sounds?

In today's United States, it would likely be celebrated. And children would die as a result. And there would be no response beyond "thoughts and prayers."
