We found out the hard way this year that political appointees impact our public health systems. Remember, cyclospora outbreak caused nearly 13,000 illnesses in 21 states? CDC & its partners helped expose lettuce. CDC follows evidence. Congress controls funding. Public Health is on the Ballot. Vote.

This is a sitting member of Congress who called for immigrants to be executed by throwing them to their deaths out of helicopters. Mike Collins personally amplified neo-Nazi propaganda online. It's disqualifying for a member of Congress and for a candidate for the U.S. Senate.
