Higher inflation, higher interest rates, and higher unemployment. Meanwhile, wage growth continues to decline as hardworking families fall further and further behind. It’s all the result of failed Republican policies.

Having alopecia, I know the impact of severe hair loss. For some, wigs bring physical & emotional support. Proud to lead the Wigs for Warriors Act with @repvindman.bsky.social to ensure coverage for wigs for servicemembers & their families enduring alopecia, chemo & other hair loss conditions.
A graphic that reads:

Introducing the Wigs for Warriors Act

By Rep. Ayanna Pressley & Rep. Eugene Vindman A graphic that reads:

The problem:

TRICARE, the health care program for servicemembers and military families, has extremely limited coverage for individuals experiencing severe hair loss and no coverage for those with alopecia areata.

That includes coverage for a cranial prosthesis — a medical-grade, custom-fitted wig designed to address medically related hair loss.A graphic that reads: 

The solution: 

Our Wigs for Warriors Act would require TRICARE to cover cranial prostheses – or wigs – for individuals with alopecia areata and other non-cancer conditions that cause permanent or medically documented hair loss, as certified by a physician.

Coverage would also extend to hair loss resulting from chemotherapy, regardless of the underlying condition being treated.

This report from House Administration Committee RM @morelle.house.gov confirms what we’ve known to be true - there’s a systematic effort by the Trump Admin. to weaponize government authority against civil society institutions & nonprofits for representing views that go against the Republican Party.
