A coalition of 17 state nurses' associations is deeply concerned about reports that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. may replace all members of the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF). They argue that such a move would politicize a vital, non-partisan institution responsible for developing evidence-based recommendations on preventive care. The coalition urges the HHS to preserve the USPSTF's independence, as its work is crucial for guiding preventive health efforts and ensuring millions of Americans have access to preventive services under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
