Warren Statement on Senate Advancing Dr. Oz’s Nomination

Washington, D.C. – Following Senate Finance Republicans' vote to advance Dr. Mehmet Oz’s nomination for head of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) released the following statement: 

“Dr. Oz’s plans to privatize Medicare would deliver worse care to 66 million Americans and waste billions of taxpayer dollars – all while giving giant insurance companies a fat paycheck. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are already gutting Social Security. The Trump administration does not care about America’s seniors.”
