WASHINGTON, DC – In case you missed it, the National Journal detailed how Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and Senator Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) are laying out the case for RFK Jr.’s resignation or firing in a damning new report chronicling the first 200+ days of RFK Jr.’s reign.
Notable Quotes
- “The 54-page report, first obtained by National Journal, enumerates Kennedy’s actions and rhetoric in the first 203 days of his leadership. Led by top Finance Committee Democrat Ron Wyden and Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee member Angela Alsobrooks, the report argues that Kennedy has spread health misinformation, dismissed key staff, and undermined public health institutions. They say his leadership has wreaked havoc across systems, while also allowing him and his allies to personally benefit from his own policies.”
- “We also are just demanding that he be fired or removed from office, and I think the report makes the case very clearly,” Alsobrooks told National Journal. “It’s unmistakable—the information in that report makes the case as to why he’s too dangerous to continue serving.”
- “Alsobrooks, who won’t be questioning Kennedy Thursday but could do so if the HELP panel holds a hearing in the future, said she wants to know whether the secretary will “accept personal responsibility for the death of any child who succumbs to measles” or any disease that could be prevented through inoculation.”
