Eager to read, great work here to the full team!
Teaching this fall? Consider saving time for in-class office hours. Mine are only 5-10 min at the very end of class but I have a line of students asking questions they’d otherwise skip.
Across rural America, Medicaid is a lifeline, especially for people who wouldn’t otherwise have easy access to health care. With Medicaid cuts looming, people are bracing for the impact.

Will there be a spread of pies at the welcome reception? I feel like that would truly motivate (even if it’s not your pie)
An excellent summary of the ripple effect this will have on us all: The hidden costs of cutting Medicaid

View of the Chicago River meeting Lake Michigan. There are skyscrapers to the left side and boats in the river. In the distance is Navy Pier with the Ferris wheel. It is a bright and sunny day with blue skies and white puffy clouds.
Beautiful city, lovely people! Thank you Chicago for hosting the #ASA2025 annual meeting of the American Sociological Association (@asanews.bsky.social)!
Grateful to be on this panel, and thank you to Tiffany Joseph for organizing it. Follow @asanews.bsky.social and @iusociology.bsky.social for more on the #ASA2025 meeting.
4 in 10 pregnant patients and 1 in 4 people use Medicaid. Shifting access among such a large population will have implications for the health of the entire population (and the HC institutions we rely upon). A major population health topic for demographers to prioritize. #ASA2025
Sociologists are poised to compliment work by health service researchers, h econ, and h policy researchers. We provide unique theoretical and methodological perspectives on this phenomena. #ASA2025
Medical/health scholars, we are about to experience a tsunami ripple through our health care system as millions lose access & HC systems lose money to keep the lights on. This *is* a structural determinant of health worthy of prioritizing 👇🏼 #ASA2025

Ok, as always thanks for the information.
Can we rely on the NOAA weather radios or is it true they are being updated 4/28-4/30?
Congratulations!!!
Such an important question, thank you @sarahgollust.bsky.social
It’s just one long rolling thunder and eerily calm
Thanked for posting these
Ugh, I’ve been leaning in this direction myself. Especially being on college campuses.
@pamherd.bsky.social @donmoyn.bsky.social it’s like reading your AB book as a manual
One of the questions my Medicaid team and I ask is, how will they decide who to cull from social welfare programs? At least one approach appears to be “add more administrative burdens,” affecting everyone, but those with the least power will feel these cuts most profoundly.
New analysis shows that states without #Medicaid expansion will be hit hardest if ACA tax credits expire.
Unless Congress extends the enhanced premium tax credits, 4 million more Americans will become uninsured, and many will likely experience difficulties accessing affordable #healthcare.
The impact of the cuts to #Medicaid Congress & the White House are entertaining will send shock waves through our health care system.
We or our children will all eventually feel it on some level.
There are times when I feel powerless, but then I see headlines like this and realize simply showing up for my students matters. Highly suspect these issues of violence are pervasive across the country in fraternities/sororities right now.
