PFAW Member,
Donald Trump just wondered on a live national broadcast whether or not COVID-19 could be treated1 by injecting toxic disinfectant or ingesting bleach. Consuming these toxic chemicals in any way is likely to be fatal, but that didn’t stop Trump from suggesting these and other ludicrous unproven remedies to a national audience. During a public health crisis, listening to someone like Trump, who is neither a health care expert nor a doctor of any kind, is dangerous.
ADD YOUR NAME TODAY to demand the removal of non-experts from any government response to coronavirus >>
The apple-in-law doesn’t fall far from the tree, and like Trump, Jared Kushner has been irresponsible and incompetent during his stint as lead on an independent and unmonitored White House coronavirus task force. From stating that the media has been taking the novel coronavirus too seriously to denying that New York needs more life-saving ventilators,2 Kushner has been wreaking havoc in the media almost as often as his father-in-law.
For the record, over 16,000 people3 have died in New York state alone.
Kushner doesn’t know what he’s talking about. SIGN TODAY to remove him from the coronavirus task force! >>
In addition to Kushner speaking about subjects in which he has no expertise, his task force is also operating without any public oversight, or with any transparency about its membership. Allowing him free reign to influence policies that could decide how many people live or die is unacceptable.
Act now to remove non-experts like Jared Kushner from the government’s coronavirus response – official or unofficial. >>
In solidarity,
- Sarah, Digital Campaigns Associate
