100 years ago, a group of pediatricians met in Dallas and formed the Texas Pediatric Society @TXPeds. Today we are the largest chapter of the @AmerAcadPeds. I’m honored to serve with amazing pediatricians across our state who speak up for kids. Happy 100th anniversary to TPS!

Texas pediatricians are proud to support #HB133 to extend moms' health coverage to one year postpartum! Glad to join so many other groups on this statement, including @texashospitals, @TXFamilyDocs, @TexasCHCs, @txhealthplans & others. #txhealth #txlege https://t.co/0qqMx1hTuV

The Human Services Committee is starting discussion on #HB290 — which would help eligible kids stay enrolled in health coverage. More info on the problem that the bill aims to fix: https://t.co/GqWAteU3ya #TXlege https://t.co/dqd5hhQqu5

The waiver on identification card expirations, including driver licenses, ends on April 14th. Make sure to renew before then. Visit https://t.co/tKxLNwe5CZ for more info. https://t.co/SPuhoBgI0v

Up later today in House Insurance -HB 843 by @raylopezfortx would strengthen ECI services for infants and toddlers by maximizing non-state revenue sources for the program. @txlege check out @putkids1st testimony in support of this important bill https://t.co/hvrNpHJnWN https://t.co/ECMTNVAXVS

The weather forecast for parts of Texas this weekend includes high winds and hail with the possibility of tornadoes, wildfires or even flooding. These can all impact power lines, so be prepared. Bookmark https://t.co/iTz92TnySb to stay informed. https://t.co/YFRyKZV1CF

I am proud to carry HB 2822, which removes prior-authorization requirements for Medicaid patients to receive physician-prescribed antipsychotics. This ensures that patients can quickly obtain essential meds to avoid potential mental health episodes. https://t.co/Rjxiq6OQfZ

We must work to continue to protect and fund early childhood intervention programs to #putkids1st and help children reach their full potential #tpsadvday @TXPeds

Excited to "see" my @TXPeds and @TEACHTX1 peeps at #TPSAdvDay! Thank you, @DrSethPedi and @TriciaHalltxpds for getting us going this morning! https://t.co/7QWSpWeMB5

Great day at the #Texas capitol with my @MEDNAX @TXPeds @texmed colleague Dr. Nedrelow asking @TexasHouse to improve access to care for kids 0-3yo on Medicaid. Access = decreased ER visits+hospital admissions = saves $$ and pays for itself! https://t.co/5n4JvNpiKL
