MADISON, Wis. — Tom Tiffany has a long record of bad health care votes on everything from cutting ACA tax credits to pay for tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk, to co-sponsoring a bill to criminalize abortion after six weeks. But Tiffany doesn’t just attack health care in the clinic—Tom Tiffany has consistently voted against common sense public health legislation on crucial funding for lead pipe removal and PFAS cleanup, and even praised RFK Jr. for rejecting WHO standards for pandemic readiness following the COVID-19 pandemic. Tiffany went so far as to shun common-sense vaccine protocols that have saved millions of lives and eradicated other diseases like the measles, calling the COVID vaccine mandate a “cruel enforcement.”
“Tom Tiffany is a public health disaster waiting to happen, already voting against some of the most bipartisan legislation the country has ever seen including funding for cancer, lead pipe removal, PFAS cleanup, suicide prevention for pandemic health care professionals and even support for students with disabilities,” said Democratic Party of Wisconsin spokesperson Emily Stuckey. “Tiffany is the kind of self-interested out-of-touch DC Republican that makes Ebenezer Scrooge seem like an okay guy even before he found the meaning of Christmas.”
