Expansion of BadgerCare in the state of #Wisconsin has been long overdue! Lives are being lost unnecessarily.
Contact your representatives and tell them to vote to expand Medicaid in our state, NOW!

Expanding Medicare to cover anti obesity medications isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s smart policy. These treatments can save billions. Prevention is always cheaper than complications.

Norovirus has arrived in #Wisconsin. Hand sanitizer is INEFFECTIVE for norovirus!
Be sure to go to the ER if you cannot keep anything down to avoid dehydration!
Take care! 🙏🏽

Let me be clear: Any act of racism or bigotry has no place in Wisconsin.
Milwaukee County remains committed to fostering a community where all feel safe, valued, and respected. I stand in solidarity with all residents — regardless of their race, ethnicity, or immigration status – who contribute to the vibrancy and strength of Milwaukee County.

Expanding #BadgerCare will save WI nearly $2B, fill open jobs, prevent hospital closures, and save lives.
Medicaid expansion is the easiest bi-partisan decision our state legislature will ever make. It’s just common sense.

Thanks for the memories, Patti 😢 @MilwaukeeCoZoo
18 Nov 2024
It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that a beloved @MilwaukeeCoZoo resident has passed away at 55 years old. Patti the hippo was the oldest hippo in the care of an AZA-Accredited Zoo in the U.S.
Patti contributed to important research, advancing care for her species, and biofacts from Patti will be donated to the @USFWS Forensics Lab to support wildlife trafficking investigations to save vulnerable species like Patti.
Patti's legacy with live on at the Milwaukee County Zoo, and beyond.

You can’t say he didn’t warn you…
Now begins the fight for the health of America. The fight against mindless, dangerous disinformation from the usual suspects. This is why we trained. This is why we took the oath. Get ready, #HealthcareHeroes, our country needs us!
18 Nov 2024
Let's be clear: Docs are speaking out because RFK Jr.'s agenda threatens the health and safety of our patients. From families losing loved ones to preventable diseases to higher costs for emergency care, his appointment as Secretary of HHS puts every patient & community at risk.

Dear #HealthcareHeroes
…we have (more) heavy lifting to do!
@ctphealthcare

🚨 Physicians, we need you.
The health of millions of Americans is at risk. RFK Jr. has spread dangerous disinformation for decades, undermining vaccines, science, & public health.
Sign our letter calling on the Senate to reject his appointment as Secretary of HHS.

Trump doesn’t care, but I want him to know what it feels like to dedicate half of your life to caring for a community only to see someone come in shit on it twice.
First was his response to COVID.
Appointing RFK, Jr. could be worse with far reaching harm we cant imagine.

It appears @elonmusk and @EricHovde both are unfamiliar with Wisconsin state law that prohibits ballot counting before 7am on Election Day. This regularly results in #Milwaukee reporting these votes long after the polls close.
Consequences of neither living in #Wisconsin!

Time to button up our chin straps. We will not falter!
With Donald Trump re-elected, we know that health care protections and access face many challenges ahead. We're here to advocate for patients, push back against harmful policies, and fight for affordable, accessible health care.
This isn't over and our work isn't done.
