- Thank you, @SenatorShaheen, @SenatorBaldwin, and @RepUnderwood for championing the Health Care Affordability Act, a bill making premium tax credits permanent for those insured through the marketplace and ensuring that health care is accessible and affordable for all. #CFAdvocacyProud to introduce my Health Care Affordability Act as my first bill of the 119th Congress. Families are already struggling to make ends meet and allowing the Affordable Care Act premium tax credits to expire would make health care costs skyrocket. Let’s get this done.
- The @US_FDA has approved the expansion of Trikafta to additional people with #cysticfibrosis ages 2 and older who have certain rare mutations. on.cff.org/4iMlQn8
- Alyftrek, a new, once-a-day CFTR modulator for people with cystic fibrosis has been approved by the @US_FDA.
- We have agreed to invest up to $15 million in ReCode Therapeutics to fund the development of a gene editing therapy that is designed to use ReCode’s delivery system to transport gene editing cargo to the lung cells in people with #cysticfibrosis.
