That goes for Democrats too. Do you think voters will support Medicare for All if it becomes a federal playground for DEI at the expense of medicine? Even half the “Coalition of the Ascendant” will balk https://t.co/rkJIsgR9zG https://t.co/W1aTbpzJsc

If House GOPs are looking for another bill to put to a vote (and distinguish themselves from Dems, who will vote against it) a Merit in Medicine Act of 2023 (banning race preferences in admissions and promotions) seems like a good candidate. https://t.co/aHCrRTKje1

Michael Berman was lots of fun to talk to. His most famous gerrymandering exploit was to draw a district line between two floors of an especially prized apartment building. Perhaps apocryphal. https://t.co/6IciCwrbTy
