The plans can now only be renewed for up to
four months instead of three years that were permitted under former President Donald Trump. .
Additionally, short-term plan providers must
clearly explain benefit limitations to consumers. .
The president really believes
the American people do not want
to be taken for suckers and junk insurance takes them for suckers, Neera Tanden, Biden's domestic policy adviser, via statement.
Short-term insurance is intended to temporarily serve as a safety net for periods of transition,
such as switching jobs or prior to receiving Medicare.
However, critics call these plans
"junk insurance" because they're often misleading as far as what they actually cover.
ABC News reports that the plans aren't required to cover those with preexisting conditions or pay for prescription drugs.
In 2018, Trump expanded short-term plans and referred to them as "much less expensive health care at a much lower price.".
Neera Tanden, Biden's domestic policy adviser,
said that Trump undermined the Affordable Care Act
(ACA) when he allowed insurance companies to
sell inadequate short-term plans.

Kennedy introduced Shanahan as
"a fellow lawyer, a brilliant scientist, technologist, a fierce warrior mom.".
He went on to call his campaign "a spoiler for President Biden and for President Trump" that
will "forge an unstoppable coalition of homeless Democrats and homeless Republicans.".
Kennedy's independent bid was launched
in October after challenging Biden for
the Democratic nomination.
The Democratic National Committee has condemned Kennedy's bid, saying that he
will only help to draw votes away from
Biden, ensuring Trump's victory. .
Shanahan revealed that she had left the Democratic Party because it was consumed with "elitism" and "winning at all costs.".
I believe I am taking the best
ideals and impulses with me. , Nicole Shanahan, via statement.
Shanahan's professional
colleagues speak highly of her.
She's motivated by trying to change
things for the better and having an
impact on social benefits, Roland Vogl, executive director of Stanford University's
Center for Legal Informatics, via statement.
Don't undersell someone
who comes from outside a
system to change the system. , Bruce Cahan, a professional colleague, via statement.
Announcing Shanahan as his running mate
will likely help Kennedy get on more ballots.
He's currently only confirmed on Utah's ballot

First Lady Jill Biden is actively engaging in her husband's re-election campaign, making strategic stops like Tucson, the second destination on her tour aimed at garnering support from women voters for President Joe Biden. However, her efforts were momentarily disrupted by Pro-Palestinian protestors who interrupted her speech, accusing the Bidens of endorsing 'genocide' by supporting Israel's military actions in Gaza.

Iranian singer Shervin Hajipour, a Grammy award winner presented by US First Lady Jill Biden, has been sentenced to over three years in prison for his anthem supporting the 2022 protests following the death of Mahsa Amini. Hajipour shared part of the judgement against him on Instagram, coinciding with Iran's parliamentary election day. The court sentenced him to three years and eight months for "propaganda against the system" and "encouraging people to protest," citing his alleged failure to express adequate regret for releasing the song.

16 Republican AGs Sue Biden Administration , for Pausing Liquid Natural Gas Exports.
The lawsuit was filed on March 21.
The states claim that the Biden administration
does not have the authority to deny
"federal permits for new liquid natural
gas (LNG) exports," 'The Hill' reports. .
The 16 attorneys general also allege
that the pause goes against Congress.
This ban disregards statutory mandates,
flouts the normal regulatory process, upends
the industry, disrupts Plaintiffs’ economies,
and subverts our constitutional structure, Via lawsuit.
These unlawful actions leave Plaintiffs
with no choice but to once more turn
to the courts to enforce the law, Via lawsuit.
The suit goes on to allege that the ban is
motivated by politics and comes "in the midst of an election year, and after a sustained pressure campaign from billionaire conglomerates, celebrities, ‘influencers,’ and banks.".
The timing of the decision, in an election
year, raises the likelihood that political
motivations drove the action, House Oversight Committee Republicans,
in a letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.
LNG, which is often considered to be
"a bridge between coal and renewables," was first pushed by the Obama administration.
