AHRQ also runs the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, a panel whose assessments on the value of drugs and procedures determine whether insurers are required to cover them. The task force hasn't met since March 2025. Trump fired two of the group's senior leaders and currently has only six of the 16 members it had when he took office. "The longer they don't meet, the longer we're losing connection between evidence and coverage," said Sandmeyer, one of the former AHRQ officials.
"I don't really care about those labels nowadays," Kelly said, when asked about Mamdani being a socialist. "I like that he stands for making sure nobody seems to feel marginalized, like we're all in this together, we all win together. "If that's what socialism is," she added, "I'm all for it!"

Accordingly, I cannot agree with the majority's analysis or its conclusions in this case. The majority finds, at bot-tom, that Colorado likely cannot legislate to protect the children of its State if, by doing so, it happens to keep state-licensed healthcare providers from saying what they want to say to minors. And the majority's holding means, in ef-fect, that just because Chiles is a talk therapist-and not, say, a surgeon—a State can be prevented from incidentally imposing reasonable restrictions on the treatments she pro-vides. Our precedents do not compel this conclusion. In fact, NIFLA draws a different line, and the correct course of action here is to hold it: Speech uttered for purposes of providing medical treatment may be restricted incidentally when the State reasonably regulates the speaker's provision of medical treatments to patients. Id., at 769-770. To do anything else opens a dangerous can of worms. threatens to impair States' ability to regulate the provision of medical care in any respect. It extends the Constitution into uncharted territory in an utterly irrational fashion. And it ultimately risks grave harm to Americans' health and wellbeing.
