This week, members of Congress, including Zach Nunn and Don Davis, introduced bipartisan legislation aimed at enhancing Medicare and Social Security services, including H.R. 8084. The bills are designed to reduce barriers to treatment for Medicare beneficiaries and improve the reliability of retirement programs. Additionally, efforts are underway to ensure continued funding for a subsidy that supports Americans' internet bills, crucial for many including veterans and seniors. Representatives are also advocating for bills to expand telehealth services, particularly for mental health and behavioral health care, highlighting the importance of accessible online health resources.
