deray mckesson (@deray) November 17, 2025This State of Emergency is typical of the subtleties of police aggression. blackness warrants a State of Emergency already. Wild. #Ferguson

I'm tired of reminding the world that we're peaceful simply because my skin reads, "danger." Defending one's humanity is tiring. #Ferguson

deray mckesson (@deray) November 17, 2025As the police have been armed with tear gas, guns, and much more, we've been armed with the TRUTH. Dangerous, us. #Ferguson

Yes, I believe that "all life" is important. But, y'all, "all life" ain't getting slaughtered by the police. #Ferguson

Yes, we are in a #StateOfEmergency. Killing black kids and then busting the heads of those concerned is damn sure an emergency situation!

Dr. Cornel Fresh (@WyzeChef) November 17, 2025It's a #StateOfEmergency that black ppl can't mourn a loss in the community without being confronted by military arsenal. #ferguson

As of this year, 24 new primary care residency spots will have been created in Washington through a five-year federal program dedicated to getting doctors to regions that need it most. The latest influx of federal money is $6.3 million, reported earlier this week, more than the combined $2.55 million that the program provided for Washington residencies between 2011-2013. Each new residency position is the equivalent of a three-year, guaranteed residency spot for one new doctor. It’s never been more important for Washington to grow its pipeline of new doctors, particularly in underserved urban and rural areas. The state’s projected doctor shortage has Washington State University considering opening its own medical school in Spokane.
Why people keep doubting Obama, I'll never know. The man turns Republican tears into wine every time.

Josélito (@60th_Street) July 09, 2025It is unique because it partners medical residents with community health clinics that typically work with low-income or underserved populations. It benefits the resident by giving a new doctor real world experience, and helps communities by getting more doctors where they are needed most. The program was created in 2010 as part of the Affordable Care Act, and brought the first round of new residency spots to Washington in 2011. Initially, Yakima and Ellensburg received the funding for residents, but as more money has come in through the program, it’s been expanded to Tacoma, Spokane and to the Puyallup Tribal Health Authority.
