Today is one step in the long process of addressing the refugee and public health crisis caused by the Maduro regime. I personally commit to all of you that the US government and @HHSGov will remain engaged on this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Azar @SecAzar

These are all vital parts of addressing the crisis. As we watch events today and tomorrow, I repeat @SecPompeo's message this morning on Twitter: “The U.S. Government fully supports the Venezuelan people in their quest for freedom and democracy. Democracy cannot be defeated.” — PolitiTweet.org

At a meeting last fall in DC, we worked together to lay out three particular areas – part of a strategic framework for our work – that we’ll discuss today: cross border collaboration on vaccine-preventable diseases, health system resilience, and public health and social services. — PolitiTweet.org

Earlier this month at the @UN, @VP Pence announced nearly $61 million in new US Government funding for humanitarian efforts to address the regional crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

.@StateDept, through UNHCR @Refugees, is providing emergency food assistance and health services to refugees and migrants in crisis situations. @USAID is prioritizing emergency food assistance and urgently needed health services in communities hosting vulnerable Venezuelans. — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Azar @SecAzar

This is precisely the kind of crisis we as health ministries must come together to address and prevent, and why today’s meeting is so important. @HHSGov has been providing extensive training and technical assistance to address public health needs across the region. — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Azar @SecAzar

The threat of infectious diseases is particularly alarming. 1000s of cases of vaccine-preventable diseases that were previously rare or entirely eliminated such as #measles and diphtheria, are arriving in border areas and being spread through local communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Azar @SecAzar

The United States is deeply concerned about the crisis created by the Maduro regime in #Venezuela and around the region. It threatens not just the people of Venezuela, but our collective health, security, and prosperity across the region. https://t.co/EWwgCfC4Xl https://t.co/XmO6CRb3z1 — PolitiTweet.org

The Primary Cares Initiative we announced today is a major step toward a value-based healthcare system—a system that puts the patient in control, restores the doctor-patient relationship, and pays for outcomes rather than procedures. https://t.co/WliwImllre https://t.co/KEbShjwAOO — PolitiTweet.org
