"A professional interior decorator who once dressed the front windows of Georgetown's Christ Child Opportunity Shop, Christine doesn't mind working on a smaller scale. In fact, her husband says, "Christine got really into it." Does Kennedy feel the same? Contacted by Washingtonian, HHS press secretary Emily G. Hilliard offered a written statement: "Secretary Kennedy is focused on doing his job, improving the health and well-being of the American people.""
Jim and Christine Payne live next door to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in Georgetown and use their front windows to send messages responding to his health claims. They displayed six copies of We're Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation and advertised a live signing by Eric Garcia after Kennedy asserted autism is a preventable disease caused by "environmental toxins" including Tylenol. Their 39-year-old son Alexander is autistic and introduced himself to Kick Kennedy. A Halloween display featured a skeleton holding a sign stating "Wish I had taken my vaccine!" with a small bottle of Tylenol. Christine is a professional interior decorator; HHS press secretary Emily G. Hilliard said Secretary Kennedy is focused on doing his job.
