For decades, major questions about women’s health have gone unanswered. @POTUS and @FLOTUS are changing that. This week, President Trump signed a historic executive order creating a new @NIH Women’s Health Division and the first White House Women’s Health Task Force to drive research, accelerate breakthroughs, and improve care at every stage of a woman’s life.

President Donald J. Trump created the @WHFraudTF to root out fraud targeting American taxpayers — and it’s delivering results. Billions of taxpayer dollars saved. Criminals facing justice. Now we’re calling on YOU: Step up. Speak out. Report fraud. america.gov/fraud

Women’s health has been sidelined for generations. The mandate to change that is here. The Women’s Health Executive Order from @FLOTOS and @POTUS directs federal agencies to prioritize fertility, menopause, cardiovascular, bone, metabolic, and brain health. At ARPA-H, we are built to take on the hardest problems where medicine has not delivered. Now we are making big bets that can produce entirely new breakthroughs for women.

BUSTED: The fraud alleged includes a $1.6 BILLION scheme to lure vulnerable individuals to California for sham substance abuse treatments. Fraudsters are stealing from Americans and preying on the most vulnerable in our communities. These thieves will be prosecuted.

Veterans served this country. Now we should clear the runway for them to serve in healthcare. Last week, @SecKennedy addressed healthcare workforce shortages with a simple idea: turn military experience into an opportunities for verterans.

ACF continues to remove red tape that takes states’ valuable time and resources away from providing direct services to children and families. One recent example: ACF’s Office of Child Care has cut burden hours in half for Child Care and Development Fund state plans. Child care professionals can now use that time previously spent checking boxes and filing paperwork to serve the needs of their community. Read more about ACF’s commitment to reducing administrative burden: forbes.com/sites/jamesbrough…

A healthy nation is a prepared nation—and it starts with the food we put on our tables. It was an honor to attend the World Food Championships and celebrate the power of cooking to nourish families, strengthen communities, and bring people together. Prioritizing nutritious food is an investment in America’s strength, resilience, and readiness. A healthier America is better prepared to face any challenge.

Social adult daycares in New York are CLUBHOUSES for crooks. Not only do these fake adult daycares steal our money — they’re stealing our trust. Fraudsters: Your time defrauding the American taxpayer is coming to an end.

In 2026, CMS identified 189,000 improper subsidized enrollments and stopped an estimated $738 million in improper payments this year alone. Together with @DrOzCMS, we are rooting out fraud and waste, protecting taxpayer dollars, and making sure these programs serve the Americans who rely on them. We are not removing eligible Americans from these programs. We are removing improper enrollments and stopping improper payments so we can protect these programs for the people who truly need them. That is what fighting fraud is about.

“The Advancing Women’s Health to Improve Outcomes in All Phases of Life Executive Order establishes a new standard for women’s health in America. We now possess extraordinary scientific capabilities, such as super intelligence, advanced biotechnology, and groundbreaking therapies. At the same time, social norms are changing, and topics that were once taboo are becoming open, well-informed, and necessary. Together, these developments present a unique chance to reinvent women’s healthcare.“ First Lady Melania Trump Women’s Health Executive Order Signing 10.19.26

Natural kratom and dangerous, enhanced opioid products are NOT the same. HHS is following the science and drawing a clear line between the two. HHS' new recommendation gives @DEAHQ precise, science-based thresholds to target concentrated 7-OH and MGPI products without sweeping natural botanical kratom into Schedule I.
