End Chronic Disease Now
Call your Congressional member today
We strongly urge you to oppose the so-called Treat and Reduce Obesity Act (H.R.4818) - this bill provides government-funded Ozempic to Medicare recipients - and eventually children on Medicaid as young as 12. The bill will cost the US tax-payer trillions of dollars and not address the root cause of obesity, which is our toxic food system.
9 of the 10 leading causes of American death, including Obesity, are tied to preventable lifestyle conditions. Instead of top-down programs that only pay for government-funded Ozempic shots, healthcare benefits should enable Americans flexibility to go to the best intervention possible. Often, this is incentivizing healthy food or exercise before lifetime drugs.
