Hi,
Trump appointed Dr. Oz, a corporate-friendly proponent of Medicare
privatization, to lead the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
(CMS).^1
Trump, Oz, Elon Musk, and Trump’s Project 2025 team want to destroy social
programs in America, especially Medicare and Social Security. Congress
must reject this extremism and protect our most important, popular social
programs.

Trump and Dr. Oz!
ADD YOUR NAME
Oz has invested in CVS and UnitedHealth, corporations regulated by the
agency Trump would like Oz to lead.^2 Oz has promoted dubious health and
diet schemes.^3 And he ran his 2022 Senate campaign on destroying Medicare
through increasing dangerous privatization efforts via Medicare Advantage.
Oz would be a disaster heading CMS.
Elon Musk has already shown he’s ready and eager to create “hardship” for
Americans and cut $2 trillion from the federal budget.^4
The Trump admin could be a disaster for America’s social programs.
Congress must protect the American people.
