STATEMENT: Rep. Haley Stevens on Growing Cyclosporiasis Outbreak in Michigan

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In response to the growing cyclosporiasis outbreak impacting communities across the state, Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens issued the following statement: 

"More than 2,600 Michiganders have gotten sick from a parasite after RFK Jr. halted CDC monitoring for cyclosporiasis. 

“Instead of investing in the proven systems that detect and stop outbreaks, Secretary Kennedy has dismantled critical public health safeguards and sidelined the scientists Michiganders count on. His reckless agenda has left our state more vulnerable when we can least afford it.

"Michigan families deserve leaders who trust science, strengthen public health, and act with urgency—not politicians who dismantle the very systems that keep us safe. I'll keep fighting to hold this administration accountable and make sure Michiganders get the answers and resources they deserve. RFK Jr. must be impeached."
