Josh Shapiro and Offer Federal Assistance

Pennsylvania health authorities announced that two unvaccinated people died from measles-associated causes, prompting Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to call Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro and offer federal assistance. According to accounts from both men, the call turned heated. I was very, very blunt with him, and I made very clear his actions and his rhetoric coming from this administration are having a negative impact on communities across America, particularly right here in Pennsylvania, Shapiro said at a press conference Tuesday.
