"As the committee gathers today, the United States is in the midst of a health care calamity. The largest cuts to American health care in the history of our nation. And they are approaching like an avalanche. Last week, most of the senior leadership at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were fired or they resigned after refusing to bow to Robert Kennedy's unceasing crusade against vaccines, Wyden began."
"Families are confused. They're scared about who to trust about their healthcare. Robert Kennedy and Donald Trump have done so much to feed that mistrust, Wyden continued as he noted he joined with Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) to compile a report that shows the disaster of Robert Kennedy's 203 days in office. Robert Kennedy has elevated conspiracy theorists, crackpots, and grifters to make life-or-death decisions about the health care of the American people."
"Robert Kennedy's tenure is so far marked by three calling cards. One is chaos at federal health agencies, leaving families, doctors, and the entire nation confused and frightened. Corruption that benefits Robert Kennedy, Donald Trump, and their friends at the expense of taxpayers. And higher health costs for families."
The United States is experiencing a healthcare crisis marked by significant cuts and turmoil in federal public health leadership. Most senior CDC leaders were fired or resigned after refusing to follow Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s vaccine-focused agenda. A 203-day review documents elevation of conspiracy theorists, fringe scientists, and allies to policymaking roles, alleged corruption benefiting officials and associates, and actions that increase costs for families. The reshuffling has left families and doctors confused and fearful, eroded trust in vaccines and public health guidance, and prompted bipartisan concern about policy direction and taxpayer impacts.
