VIDEO: Dr. Richard Pan Releases New Ad Highlighting His Record Of Fighting And Beating Trump, RFK Jr., and MAGA
Today, Dr. Richard Pan, who is running against MAGA Congressman Kevin Kiley in California’s 6th District, released a new ad highlighting his record as a pediatrician, public health advocate, and former State Senator who took on RFK Jr. and MAGA in the aftermath of the deadly measles outbreak at Disneyland.
The ad highlights how Dr. Pan led a coalition of parents, teachers, pediatricians, and public health professionals to protect public schools and children’s health, by taking on the MAGA conspiracy theorists head on by ending nonmedical exemptions to vaccinations preventing deadly diseases in California public schools. Dr. Pan was assaulted on the street for his leadership, and RFK Jr. famously came to Sacramento twice where Dr. Pan beat him both times, and passed landmark public health legislation. TIME Magazine called Dr. Pan a “Public Health Hero” for his courage.
Script:
“An outbreak at Disneyland.”
There was a deadly measles outbreak at Disneyland. Children got sick.
While politicians spread fear, I protected kids.
I took on Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and passed the law requiring childhood vaccinations in schools, saving lives.
For standing up, I was assaulted on the street, but I never backed down.
Trump and RFK Jr. are attacking science and our children's health.
I'm Dr. Richard Pan and I'm running for Congress to stop them.
