The confirmation of RFK, Jr. is such a vicious slap in the face of anyone working in public health or healthcare, especially those working with marginalized groups. Deference to expertise in America is truly dead and buried.

Republicans have introduced a bill to abolish OSHA. As a former labor secretary, I know firsthand how crucial this agency is to protecting workers from bosses who cut corners on safety to pad their own pockets. This is the party of corporate greed, not the party of workers.
