In recent social media posts, Representative Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D., discussed her recognition in the field of osteopathic medicine and legislative efforts related to Medicaid. Miller-Meeks represents Iowa's 1st District in the U.S. Congress, where she has served since replacing Dave Loebsack in 2021.
On March 27, 2025, Miller-Meeks expressed her appreciation for being named a "2025 Champion of Osteopathic Medicine at the @AOAforDOs annual DO Day General Session." She remarked on the pleasure of seeing many Iowa physicians present in Washington, D.C.
Later that day, she posted about a legislative solution she supports, stating, "There is a solution to this! My Medicaid Program Improvement Act, which passed the House in the 118th Congress and was reintroduced in the 119th, would tackle this issue head-on."
In a subsequent tweet, Miller-Meeks referenced an article by The Wall Street Journal, quoting, "Taxpayers Spent Billions Covering the Same Medicaid Patients Twice." This aligns with her advocacy for policy reform in Medicaid.
