Doctor, Founder of Community Health Center to Join Rep. Kelly for Trump’s Address to Joint Session of Congress

March 3, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON – U.S. Representative Robin Kelly (IL-02) will be joined by Dr. Lisa Green, the CEO and a provider at Family Christian Health Center (FCHC), as her guest to President Donald Trump’s first joint Congressional address of his second term. As a doctor at a federally-funded health center and an advocate for Black maternal health, Dr. Green understands the importance of affordable public healthcare. “Since Day One, President Trump has attacked public health – from unqualified cabinet nominees to Elon Musk’s staff cuts across health agencies to executive orders erasing CDC data related to health equity. House Republicans followed his lead and passed a budget proposal to cut Medicaid and reward the wealthy few with a tax break,” said Rep. Kelly . “Doctors like Lisa see the powerful impact of accessible and affordable healthcare every day – and they know the deadly consequences when patients cannot receive treatment. Trump would see our country’s health suffer while giving more money to his billionaire friends like Elon Musk. Lisa and I will not stand for it.” Dr. Green founded FCHC in 2000 to provide critical healthcare to the underserved community in Harvey, Illinois, and has now expanded to Lynwood and Dolton. FCHC recently opened a new facility dedicated to maternal health. Issues : Health Care Progress for Women
