New campaign tracks RFK Jr. support among lawmakers
Fight for the Future has launched a new campaign calling on lawmakers to block RFK Jr.’s confirmation as the secretary of Health and Human Services. The page features a tracker for public statements by senators regarding Kennedy’s nomination and a petition to help concerned constituents contact their senators.
The following can be attributed to Matt Lane, Senior Policy Counsel:
“Donald Trump wants to put bigoted conspiracy theorist RFK Jr. in charge of public health, but we can still stop him. As head of Health and Human Services, RFK Jr. would have control over every aspect of public health, from the approval of vaccines to how pandemics are managed, and would even have a say in how Medicaid and Medicare are run. He is dangerously unqualified to hold this position. We are happy to provide this tool to the public to make their voices heard and hold members accountable to their statements.”
