Former HHS Secretary Donna Shalala is in, perhaps, the tightest congressional race in this year's midterm election cycle.Shalala, who headed the department for eight years under former President Bill Clinton and previously served as the president of the University of Miami, is the Democratic nominee campaigning to represent Florida's 27th congressional district.
The polls have her neck-and-neck in a race where healthcare issues, specifically the lack of Medicaid expansion in Florida and the future of the Affordable Care Act, have taken center stage.
Shalala spoke to HealthLeaders about why she's frustrated with the Trump administration's approach to the healthcare system and what she would aim to accomplish if elected to Congress.
HL: Why are you running and what's most important to your campaign? Shalala: Well, I decided to run because I was pretty pissed off with what was going on in Washington. [The Trump administration] was basically destroying the healthcare system that we have in this country, undercutting existing programs like Medicare, Medicaid, and the ACA. If you're poor, if you're handicapped, if you're a senior, or if you're a working stiff and don't have access to healthcare, that's a disaster. And increasing the number of people without coverage is a public health disaster for our country.

I AM somebody’s grandmother and look a hell of a lot better than she does. :-)

A former phb-ette of mine is probably one of the supply.
Like they say, better than being pissed on. 😂😂😂
What a senile old idiot. We need to get rid of everybody that thinks like her because they’re a cancer on America.
That could gag a maggot.
She should be pissed off.....every time she looks in a mirror.
Hey Donna. It is better to be “pissed off” than “pissed on” but in your case, I’ll make an exception.
Up yours, Shalala.

Shalala looks like a distant cousin of Johnny Puleo.
(He was a dwarf who was talented and had the group Johnny Puleo and the Harmonica Gang.)
Typical life-long gobvernment “worker” parasite.
