The most recent press release, "Murray, Duckworth, Blumenthal, Hirono, Escobar Rally with Servicemembers and Veterans to Defend Their Access to Reproductive Care as Republicans Continue Attacks," was submitted on Sept. 29.
The Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions published 14 press releases the month before, marking a 42.9 percent increase for the current month.
The Committee has three subcommittees: children and families; employment and workplace safety; and primary health and retirement security.
Many of the prominent issues it deals with — the opioid crisis, skyrocketing drug and medical prices, college expenses — lend themselves to bipartisan cooperation.
