Senator Schumer Calls on Senator Johnson to Revoke Invitation to Testify to Doctor Critical of Vaccine Mandates

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer criticizes Homeland Security Committee Chair Senator Ron Johnson's decision to invite testimony from Dr. Jane Orient, executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons on Tuesday. Senator Schumer calls on the Wisconsin Republican to revoke the invitation, saying, "The more Senate Republicans dip their toes into the water of these anti-science, anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, the more damage it does to our country. Public figures of all levels should be building up confidence in a vaccine, not giving a platform to those who would undermine it," Senator Schumer says. close
