Jennifer McClellan (@mcclellan.house.gov) 2025-06-25T02:10:22.586Z

x RFK Jr. doesn’t know what his own department recommends on COVID-19 vaccines. That’s deeply troubling. I set the record straight: COVID-19 vaccines are safe, effective, and the best medicine to prevent outbreaks. — Congresswoman Robin Kelly (@robinkelly.house.gov) 2025-06-24T17:03:53.619Z
x FACT CHECK: Health Secretary RFK Jr. said the COVID-19 vaccine causes miscarriages. This is NOT TRUE. Pregnant women should get vaccinated to protect themselves and their babies. Last month, RFK Jr. said to not take medical advice from him. We’ll take that to heart. — Congresswoman Robin Kelly (@robinkelly.house.gov) 2025-06-24T16:19:49.027Z
x VEASEY: You've credited the 12 steps in your recovery. What's step 4?
RFK JR: Making a fearless inventory
VEASEY: Of ourselves. Do you remember step 12?
RFK JR: We try to help other addicts
VEASEY: Does cutting off treatment from people still suffering align with step 4 or… pic.twitter.com/XB0waPhW9a — Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 24, 2025
x In April, I went to #HHS and demanded a meeting with Secretary Kennedy. No response. I finally spoke with him today, and still got no real answers. When I asked why he’s cutting life-saving HIV vaccine research funding, all he had to say was, “Show me one life.” youtu.be/Mh2-qSFrheQ — Congressman Troy A. Carter, Sr. (@reptroycarter.bsky.social) 2025-06-24T18:12:15.385Z
x CARTER: Why would you cut HIV vaccine research?
RFK JR: “We’ve been funding it since 1984 and still no vaccine.”
CARTER: So because science hasn’t cracked it yet, your solution is to pull the plug? After 40 years of progress?
This is the equivalent of slashing the fire… pic.twitter.com/m7YDW38G75 — Brian Allen (@allenanalysis) June 24, 2025

The House Appropriations Committee held a Markup of the Fiscal Year 2026 Homeland Security Bill.

Lauren Underwood (@underwood.house.gov) 2025-06-24T14:59:52.564Z
x I cannot support a funding bill that allows Secretary Noem and DHS to continue to illegally spend hundreds of millions of our taxpayer dollars, violate our constitutional rights, and put America’s security at risk. — Rep. Lauren Underwood (@underwood.house.gov) 2025-06-24T23:21:34.852Z

The House Committee on Oversight and Reform Subcommittee on Health Care and Financial Services held a hearing entitled, “Sacrificing Excellence for Ideology: The Real Cost of DEI”.
x My grandpa’s grandpa was a slave. That wasn’t all that long ago. Now, somehow, diversity programs are the scapegoat for every problem in the economy? This is propaganda. These attacks don’t fix anything. They just keep Black and Brown folks stuck in the same cycle of exclusion and harm. — Congressman Wesley Bell (@repwesleybellmo.bsky.social) 2025-06-25T20:37:01.970Z
Rep. Wesley Bell 47:48; Rep. Lateefah Simon 1:00:23

I am very concerned this Administration's emphasis on AI will lead to people being denied benefits or facing major delays. — Congresswoman Gwen Moore (@repgwenmoore.bsky.social) 2025-06-25T21:38:56.670Z
