I am curious why you thought it was a good idea to confirm RFK Jr. IF, as you say, you were elected to ensure ‘the best’ for your constituents. To quote Sen. John Ossoff about RFK Jr. nomination, “First of all, zero relevant experience. He’s a trial lawyer, a politician from a famous family. No medical or scientific background, he’s never run a hospital or a health system or anything like that. Second of all… he’s said some pretty wild stuff about public health, over and over and over again, like: he proposed that Covid-19 might be ‘ethnically targeted’ to spare Jews. Ethnically targeted to spare Jews. He said Lyme disease was a military bioweapon. For years he’s been persuading American families against routine childhood immunizations. He’s compared the work of the CDC to ‘Nazi death camps.’... If a couple of years ago I told you all that, and I told you that the Senate was about to put America’s health in this man’s hands, you’d probably tell me the Senate has lost its mind.” So maybe you can understand why I am curious about your decision to confirm. Your constituents will hold you accountable for your decision.
