The nominations of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence are deeply concerning and should be firmly opposed. Kennedy is a prominent anti-vaccine advocate who has spread dangerous misinformation about immunizations, putting public health at grave risk. His discredited views fly in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence and consensus. Gabbard's ties to Russia and its disinformation campaigns, along with her opposition to support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression, make her unfit to lead America's intelligence agencies at this pivotal moment. Confirming either of these nominees would undermine faith in democratic institutions and processes. I urge you to reject these nominations in the strongest possible terms to protect public welfare and national security interests.
