It’s likely that spineless Louisiana GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy M.D. will cower and cave when it comes to a vote on Casey Means For Surgeon General


Dr. Bill is chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP). He voted to confirm RFKjr as secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. He values his personal political survival over public health.
 
On February 21, 2021, Cassidy voted to convict Trump on a single article of impeachment, and he's been groveling for an endorsement at the altar of Trump every since.  

It was NEVER going to happen, Dr. Swirl. 

Headline:  CNN, 3/15/2026

Lauren Fox and Sarah Owermohle report:
Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy in February 2025 weighed possible political peril against a long career in medicine, ultimately casting the critical vote to confirm known vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy as the president’s Health and Human Services secretary. 
But the choice hasn’t guaranteed the senator’s political future. Now the incumbent who made a career out of advocating for vaccines is ensnared in a bitter primary election back home — without President Donald Trump’s support. And as he fights for his political life, he must decide whether to confirm a Kennedy ally, Casey Means, to serve as Trump’s surgeon general. 
The saga of whether to schedule the vote and push for Means’ nomination despite headwinds is putting Cassidy back in the spotlight as he faces off in a three-way primary against Rep. Julia Letlow, who has been endorsed by the president and embraced by the “Make America Healthy Again” movement, and John Fleming, a state treasurer who has tried to establish himself as a conservative alternative in the race.
How much more evidence do you need, Dr. Bill, to know she is wholly unqualified for the position?
