Doctors Fight AMA Medicare Stance in NY Academy Statement
The New York Academy of Medicine rejected AMA claims that government aid should go only to those unable to pay. It urged equal government and voluntary action to ensure universal access to high quality care, with federal, state, and local priorities and funding coordinated by official health agencies. The statement marked a break from AMA emphasis on state and local responsibility.

Everglades Wildlife and Park Threatened by Drought Threat
In Everglades National Park, a big white wood ibis and other wildlife face danger as water dries up due to canal and levee systems built for flood control. Park officials warn that rising water demand and reduced inbound flow have left numerous water holes dry, threatening birds and habitat. Negotiations with authorities aim to release water to restore flow, with hopes to revive the sawgrass marsh by next year.
