President Joe Biden signed an executive order Monday aimed at advancing the study of women’s health by strengthening data collection and providing better funding opportunities for biomedical research while chiding Republicans for having “no clue about the power of women” but saying they’re “about to find out” come November’s election.
Women’s health has long been underfunded and understudied. It wasn’t until the 1990s that the federal government mandated women be included in federally funded medical research; for most of medical history, though, scientific study was based almost entirely on men.
“We still know too little about how to effectively prevent, diagnose and treat a wide array of health conditions in women,” said Dr. Carolyn Mazure, the head of the White House initiative on women’s health.
Today, research often fails to properly track differences between women and men, and does not represent women equally particularly for illnesses more common to them — which Biden suggested his order would help change.
Actually the supreme Court has 0 enforcement mechanism. And it would have no recourse should Biden do anything within his power to undermine that ruling by say… Invoking a national health emergency.
But he didn’t, and he won’t. No amount of copious cope filled paragraphs nitty-grittyin about why he won’t will change that. Hope and paragraphs of promises ain’t shit when reality sets in and the best thing anyone can bring up when he’s criticized is copious cope and:
“at least he’s not a treasonous felon.”
No need for nitty gritty, ignoring laws and courts is what dictators do. The hhs secretary is the one to determine a national health emergency and by law can only do so for a disease or disorder. Pregnancy is neither.
Acting like he hasn’t done anything besides not be Trump is disingenuous at best especially considering the congresses he’s had to work with.
You mean the secretary of human health services who reports directly to the president? We are talking about the same thing here, biden.
Actually he has the power within his existing presidential power. he just decided not to. Why, i don’t know. But it isn’t some dictator move. He did it and has done it for disaster relief. He has considered doing it for abortion, but decided not to.
He also ended Medicaid coverage by ending the covid national emergency, something he didn’t have to sign, but did.
Sure Biden hasn’t done nothing, but has done less than he could in my estimation. Saying otherwise? Well i call that cope. You can call it what you want.

thank you for expanding on this
Democrats could have had a landslide victory with no contest if they would just play the cards on the table and be on the peoples’ side for once
not doing so seems fishy why would you not look out for the citizens and instantly lock in votes? who else could the politicians be looking out for?
The supreme court has demonstrated its illegitimacy.
The congress he had to work with at the start of his term had a Democratic majority, which considered preserving the filibuster to be more important than protecting Roe.
