  3. @gottalaff.bsky.social #BillCassidy should never get a peaceful night's sleep as long as he lives. He could have saved us from #RFKJr and chose not to.

  4. #US #Senate #Democrats block #Republicans#healthcare bill

    The Republican bill by Sens #BillCassidy of Louisiana & #MikeCrapo of Idaho would send up to $1,500 to individuals earning less than 700% of the federal poverty level — ~$110,000 for an individual or $225,000 for a family of 4 in 2025. Those funds could not be used for #abortion or gender #transition procedures & would require verification of beneficiaries' #immigration or citizenship status.

  5. Sen. #BillCassidy on #FnS is endorsing "Health Savings Accounts" as the #GOP solution to "making health care affordable" (vs restoring the #ACA subsidies.)

    OVER 40% OF AMERICANS ARE LIVING PAYCHECK-TO-PAYCHECK, deep in credit card debt. They don't have the spare cash to let sit in a "savings account" to payoff a surprise $100K medical bill. #JFC #OutOfTouch

  6. #BillCassidy voted to confirm #RFKJr as “health” secretary earlier this year after getting a promise from Kennedy to not push his #AntiVax agenda. Either the brain worm ate the memory of the promise, or RFKJr was full of shit as usual.

    Now let’s see if Cassidy does anything about it…

  7. #BillCassidy noted one of the presenters scheduled for Friday is a trial attorney who’s worked with #RFKJr to sue #vaccine makers.

    “He is presenting as if an expert on #childhood #vaccines,” Cassidy wrote. “The #ACIP is totally discredited. They are not protecting children.”

  8. Apparently Sen #BillCassidy has finally had enough of #RFKJr’s #AntiVax nonsense.

    Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a liver doctor who’s been outspoken in support of the birth dose of the #hepatitisB #vaccine, posted to X the agenda of the cmte, known as the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices [#ACIP].

  9. Bill Cassidy is versatile; he’s not only a disgrace to his oath of office, he’s also a disgrace to his Hippocratic oath!

  10. The updated #CDC webpage now includes an asterisk & explanation after the header “Vaccines do not cause Autism.”
    
“* The header ‘Vaccines do not cause autism’ has not been removed due to an agreement with the chair of the U.S. Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee that it would remain on the CDC website,” according to the website.
    #BillCassidy’s office did not respond to a request for comment.

  11. Sen. #BillCassidy (R-Louisiana), a #physician who chairs the #Senate #Health, Education, Labor & Pensions Committee, decided to set aside his misgivings & support #RFKJr after receiving a range of commitments, which he detailed in a Feb. 4 speech on the Senate floor. They INCLUDED that the “#CDC will not remove statements on their website pointing out that #vaccines do not cause #autism.”

  12. Report Shows How GOP Health Care Scheme Would Further Enrich Insurance Giants

    Trump doubled down on the idea of funding health savings accounts instead of extending the enhanced ACA tax credits.

  13. #RFKJr’s newly formed #CDC #vaccine advisory committee will meet today to review #immunizations for #Covid, #hepatitisB & #MMRV. #RFKJr recently replaced all of its members with known vaccine “skeptics”.

    #BillCassidy, a #Republican doctor who leads the #Senate #health cmte, said Americans should NOT have confidence in the cmte’s decisions if it changes the childhood vaccine schedule.

  14. I suppose Bill Cassidy said “what the hell” when voting to confirm RFK.

    His legacy was already sealed.

    Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) : “Our Maternal Death Rates Are Only Bad If You Count Black Women.” And this guy’s a fucking physician.

  15. The hearing on Wednesday before the #Senate #Health Cmte will give Dr. Monarez an opportunity to tell her story publicly & answer questions. It will also put a spotlight on Senator #BillCassidy, Republican of Louisiana & the cmte’s chairman, whose vote paved the way for RFKJr’s confirmation in February. Cassidy, who is also a physician, has been increasingly critical of #RFKJr on #vaccines.

    #PublicHealth #science #medicine

  16. “We’re denying people #vaccines,” #BillCassidy said as he concluded his line of questioning.

    #RFKJr responded: “You’re wrong.”

    In an exchange w/ Mark Warner (D-VA), RFKJr said he DIDN’T EVEN KNOW how many people died of #Covid & whether the vaccines prevented Covid #deaths because “they didn’t have the data.”🤯

    In fact, hundreds of reports have tracked the efficacy of the vaccines, finding that the shots have saved millions of lives in the #US & elsewhere.

    #Trump #PublicHealth #medicine

  17. Since then, #RFKJr has installed skeptics to guide #vaccine policy, restricted access to #Covid-19 #vaccines, canceled #grants & contracts for vaccine development & given a begrudging endorsement of the #measles vaccine.

    Senator #BillCassidy, Republican of Louisiana & a #physician who voted to confirm RFKJr on the condition he wouldn’t disrupt access to vaccines, said that Kennedy was in fact doing so through his actions as #health secretary.

    #Trump #PublicHealth #science #medicine

  18. Cassidy wants more pointless hearings instead of accountability. RFK Jr. has already proven himself a disaster, he must be removed NOW. Enough with GOP excuses and cover-ups. 😡 #BlueCrew #RemoveRFKJr #BillCassidy #ComplicitCorruptGOP #Resist #ProtectDemocracy
