From Fox News: Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., said he would vote to confirm his former political opponent Dr. Mehmet Oz to serve as Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) administrator if Oz plans to protect the government programs.
“If Dr. Oz is about protecting and preserving Medicare and Medicaid, I’m voting for the dude,” Fetterman tweeted.
Fetterman defeated Oz, a Republican, in Pennsylvania’s 2022 U.S. Senate race.
“Our politics are obviously different, and we do have a history, but I don’t have any bitterness. I don’t hold anything against him,” Fetterman said, according to CNN’s Manu Raju.
“As long as he’s willing to protect and preserve Medicaid and Medicare, I’m voting for the dude,” Fetterman added.
Fetterman and Oz both ran for the same U.S. Senate seat in the 2022 elections. Fetterman won the race with 51.2% of the vote, compared to 46.3% for Oz.
