Statement on Erica Schwartz Hearing — The National Public Health CoalitionBased on what we saw during the Senate HELP Committee hearing on July 15, 2026, NPHC cannot support Dr. Schwartz’s nomination.www.nationalphc.org

Sean Kaufman was nominated for Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response for the Department of Health and Human Services. He had his nomination hearing in front of the Senate HELP committee on Wed, July 15, 2026. We thought we should drop this info about him.

A key takeaway from the nomination hearing for CDC director today is Senator Cassidy got mad, like Old Grandpa Mad. 🙈 🙉 🙊

We can't let this go, Dr Schwartz mentioned "true abortions." Let's be clear there is NO such thing. She wants CDC to be sure that hospitals & doctors are not "hiding" abortions in emergency room data or emergency definition. Women deserve healthcare and medical care free of political interference.

Dr Schwartz thinks CDC should go back to its OG mission. Would that be malaria prevention? Or is that infectious disease? She stated "too much mission creep." What is creep? Nutrition, physical activity? Decreasing heart disease & stroke? Promoting effective cancer treatments? Where is the line?

Seems like to us that Dr Schwartz will not stand against more RIFs is what we heard. Did others hear this too? She didn't say that she would stop more large scale layoffs at CDC. say what?

We have lost count of the number of times people have already said "radical transparency" during this nomination hearing. If you say a word or term so much, it really starts to lose its meaning. make it stop! please! 🙇‍♀️

Dr Schwartz said "they would not ask me to do something illegal." Dr Monarez said same thing last year. We know how that ended. They (president & RFK Jr) have asked previous CDC director to ignore scientific evidence. Dr Schwartz thinks it won't happen again? Naive!
