Delaware’s House HHD Committee passed SB 22 unanimously! ✅ The bill limits prior authorization and requires insurers to use only high-quality, transparent clinical guidelines to make coverage decisions for mental health care. Thanks @BryanTownsendDE and Speaker Minor-Brown for sponsoring this important legislation. #MHM

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and policymakers across the country are stepping up to support this issue like never before. In a powerful bipartisan effort, Inseparable’s Mental Health Caucus members Sen. Byron Pelton (R) @commish_pelton and Reps. Kyle Brown (D) @KyleBrownHD12, and Lindsay Gilchrist (D) @LindsGilchrist championed HB 26-1002 to strengthen Colorado’s mental health workforce. Progress is possible when we put mental health first. 🫂💜 #MHAM

Good news! S 5241 and S 8426 passed the Senate Finance Committee, promising fewer denials, better access, and clearer standards in access to mental health care in New York. Mental health is health. But New Yorkers still face unfair delays and insurance clawbacks. These bills can help. Thanks to Sens. Fernandez, Brouk, and Bailey for your leadership. Stay tuned. #MHM

Jennifer's 13-year-old son attempted suicide. Insurance refused to cover the residential treatment that was saving his life — he wasn't "sick enough." "Sick enough" isn't a standard. It's a stalling tactic. Share your story: carethatsfair.us #CareThatsFair

Great news! Alaska is one step away from providing age-appropriate mental health education to students while keeping parents informed and in control. 🫂 SB 41 has passed both houses with bipartisan support; now it just needs Gov. Dunleavy’s signature. #KidsMentalHealth #MHM

Last week, GA’s @GovKemp signed a state budget with an additional $2.8 million for youth mental health. 💙 That means more school social workers and stronger mental health support across the state. This is a win for all GA students!

Georgia students are getting a lifeline. HB 1045 requires that the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline be printed on public school IDs, and @GovKemp just signed it into law! Huge thanks to Rep. Herring for her leadership and to her daughter for the bravery to share her experiences!

Mental health care shouldn’t require a crisis first. The #EARLYMindsAct would let states fund early support BEFORE symptoms become severe. That’s why MHA is hosting a Mental Health Day of Action RIGHT NOW. We know early support works. Now, let's fund it. mhanational.org/dayofaction

Mental Health America’s Mental Health Day of Action is TOMORROW, May 15! Our goal? To urge Congress to fund mental health prevention and early intervention, and co-sponsor the #EARLYMindsAct. Get involved: mhanational.org/dayofaction

Delaware’s SB 22 passed the senate 21-0! 💯 The bill ends prior authorization and aligns standards of mental health care with clinical guidelines. Thanks @BryanTownsendDE for sponsoring, and David Lloyd, who testified with parents in defense of the bill. Next up: the House floor!

A child in a mental health crisis needs care, not a fight with their insurance company. Families across the country know this fight. In NH, @KellyAyotte is calling it out — and calling out Anthem by name.  Worth a read ⬇️ unionleader.com/opinion/op-eds…

This Mother’s Day, bereaved parents brought their grief — and their children’s photos — to the Capitol to urge the Senate to pass #KOSA. Sen. Cruz committed to getting KOSA passed through Commerce, through the Senate, through the House, and signed into law. We’re holding him to it. 💚

This morning, Inseparable was honored with the 2026 Allies in Action Award by our friends at @afspnational. We’re incredibly grateful for this recognition and for our continued partnership in working to ensure people can access the mental healthcare they need.

📹 At today's Mother's Day Rally for Online Safety, @SenTedCruz committed to marking up the Kids Online Safety Act (S.1748) in @SenateCommerce and getting it signed into law. #MarkItUp #PassKOSA #ProtectKids

We are live! Sen. @MarshaBlackburn reminds everyone that the Kids Online Safety Act (S.1748) has broad bipartisan support in the Senate with 76 cosponsors. Watch LIVE ➡️ facebook.com/share/v/1ESVHa…

"[Big Tech] is not above the law. The juries in California and New Mexico made that clear," says @SenBlumenthal at the Mother's Day Rally for Online Safety. "Never doubt that you're making a difference," he tells survivor parents, "We cannot afford the luxury of despair."

💬 "We have to see movement when it comes to bills like the Kids Online Safety Act," says Sen. @amyklobuchar at the Mother's Day Rally for Online Safety this afternoon. ⚠️ Social media companies made $11B in revenue in 2022 from ads directed at kids aged 12 and under.

Mental health crisis care saves lives. We've seen it in the communities that have built it, where people in their hardest moments have someone to call, someone to respond, and a safe place for help while they recover. Most of the country isn't there yet. Too often, a crisis still ends in an ER hallway or the back of a police car, and families are left to pick up the pieces. We can do better, and the path is clear. Someone to call. Someone to respond. A safe place for help. That's a better response, and it's the future we're working toward. #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #MHAM
