‘Unqualified’ Lawyer Confirmed by Senate to Manage Nation’s Health

In a 50-49 vote Thursday, the Senate confirmed an “unqualified” lawyer with a “far-left ideology,” Xavier Becerra, to manage Health and Human Services.

It was Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell who condemned Becerra’s “partisan warfare and his far-left ideology” and Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life, who described him as “unqualified.”

“His confirmation shows just how far the pro-abortion Democrats are willing to go to support abortion on demand and the demands of pro-abortion groups,” she said. “Xavier Becerra has no health care experience but plenty of abortion advocacy and he is being rewarded by the Biden administration for that extremism.” . . .

The Associated Press reported Becerra is “filling a key position in the Biden administration’s coronavirus response and its ambitious push to lower drug costs, expand insurance coverage, and eliminate racial disparities in medical care.”

But he built his reputation on none of those issues while serving as California’s attorney general and as a congressman. (Read more from “‘Unqualified’ Lawyer Confirmed by Senate to Manage Nation’s Health” HERE)
