🔍 Notes on those without explicit titles:
– Jamie Loehr, Karyn Lyons, Yvonne Maldonado, and Charlotte A. Moser held roles listed in the CDC’s ACIP roster, but their public profiles didn’t include institutional affiliations.
– Other members have prominent roles in academics, public health, epidemiology, and infectious disease.
@RobertKennedyJc You have just taken America and the world backwards! All of the 17 members of ACIP were experienced researchers with credentials, knowledge, education, experience, expertise and integrity beyond you and anyone associated with MAHA “theory”. This is totally the worst decision!!!
Pope Francis was the rare leader who made us want to be better people. In his humility and his gestures at once simple and profound – embracing the sick, ministering to the homeless, washing the feet of young prisoners – he shook us out of our complacency and reminded us that we are all bound by moral obligations to God and one another.
Today, Michelle and I mourn with everyone around the world – Catholic and non-Catholic alike – who drew strength and inspiration from the Pope’s example. May we continue to heed his call to “never remain on the sidelines of this march of living hope.”
“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” - President Alan Garber https://t.co/6cQQpcJVTd
Thank you to everyone who joined our town hall in Scottsdale. @SenRubenGallego and I heard from folks living with uncertainty as Donald Trump and Elon Musk move forward with their plan to gut Medicaid in order to give tax cuts to rich people. We won’t stop fighting to protect Arizonans’ health care.
Traitor?
Elon, if you don’t understand that defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those of us who do.
.@JoeBiden has a record of accomplishments unmatched by any president in our lifetime. He restored honesty, dignity & integrity to the office after 4 years of lies, crime, scandal & chaos. Thank you for your service, Mr. President. It's now our duty as patriotic Americans to elect the Democrat who will honor & further your legacy.
