I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.
I cannot in good conscience support someone who denies and will dilute our public health protections, sow distrust in science, and oversee massive cuts to health care programs for vulnerable Americans.

Without getting too deep in the constitutional weeds, Congress has several powers at its disposal, including:
🟢 The power to spend.
🟢 The power to investigate.
🟢 The power to challenge presidential actions in court.
🟢 The power to impeach.
Let’s take them one at a time. (2/14)

The Trump Administration’s action to suspend all federal grants & loans will have a devastating impact on the health and well-being of millions of children, seniors on fixed incomes, and the most vulnerable people in our country.
It is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism.
