Do Wild, Cartwright, and Lamb support Rachel Levine for Assistant Health Secretary?

January 19, 2021

Today, Joe Biden announced Dr. Rachel Levine of Pennsylvania as his choice for Assistant Health Secretary.

As Pennsylvania Health Secretary, Levine was responsible for overseeing nursing homes – including a failed pandemic response that has led to nursing homes accounting for nearly 70 percent of all coronavirus deaths in Pennsylvania.

What’s more, after Levine implemented a policy telling nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients discharged from hospitals, Levine removed her own 95-year-old mother from a central Pennsylvania personal care home and checked her into a premium hotel.

Voters deserve to know whether or not Susan Wild, Matt Cartwright and Conor Lamb will oppose Biden’s abysmal decision to name Rachel Levine as his Assistant Health Secretary.
