John,

When I first became a father, I faced a bittersweet moment. There was joy over my firstborn, but stress over how we would pay the hospital bills.

My wife and I were uninsured, and I was only a second year law student who wasn't making much. We had our newborn daughter and she faced some health issues. We had to figure out our options to make sure she would receive the care she needed.

Health care and legislation is personal to me. And I understand the frustration of seeing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. inch closer to leading the Department of Health and Human Services.

RFK Jr. is an anti-vaxxer who would endanger our children's health. He's also a conspiracy theorist who believes in quack science rather than a doctor's sound advice.

We cannot risk the safety and lives of families with RFK Jr. in charge of the Department of Health and Human Services. I've spent my time in Congress making sure no one would experience the stress my wife and I shared. And it's why I fought for the Affordable Care Act, and will continue to do so.

Will you join me by contributing any amount to ensure Americans stay safe and healthy? I wouldn't be asking if it wasn't this important. [[link removed]?]
