Rep. Roy Celebrates The Confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health Secretary

WASHINGTON —  Rep. Chip Roy (TX-21) issued the following statement today on the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.  

Congressman Roy said: “I am thrilled that the Senate officially confirmed my friend Robert F. Kennedy Jr. today as Secretary of Health and Human Services. 

There is a healthcare revolution going on in this country. People's eyes have been opened to the rampant cronyism and overregulation that have destroyed our healthcare system. They want freedom and control away from the government when it comes to their healthcare. That's why I released my report, 'The Case for Healthcare Freedom,' last month. I know RFK is committed to the core principles laid out in that document, which provides a comprehensive roadmap to lowering costs and putting American patients back in the driver's seat. 

I look forward to working alongside Sec. Kennedy and my colleagues to Make America Healthy Again through healthcare freedom."
