Cotton: If You Leave Things To Health Officials They’re “Only Gonna Consider What Is Best For Public Health”

July 23, 2021 Republicans, Trump cultists

“Let me say, nobody elected the CDC. Nobody elected Tony Fauci to make these decisions. Advisers advise, elected officials decide.

“And the American people elected Joe Biden and the members of Congress and our governors and state legislatures to make these decisions for us.

“If you just turn these decisions over to a bunch of public health bureaucrats, of course the only thing they’re gonna consider is what they think is in the best interest of public health. – Sen. Tom Cotton, today on Fox News.
