Former state Senator and gubernatorial candidate Ed “The Trucker” Durr today voiced his opposition to a bill, A-1884, that recently made its way through the Assembly Health Committee. The bill aims to establish the “act of disseminating misinformation as professional misconduct for health care professionals.”

“Assembly bill 1884 is dangerous.” Ed “The Trucker” Durr said, “The bill interferes with the doctor-patient relationship by allowing doctors to only discuss treatments approved by CNN and MSNBC.”

Durr asked “Where was Herb Conaway when Governor Murphy decided it was a good idea to force COVID positive patients into nursing homes? Wasn’t Murphy’s insistence that it was a good idea misinformation?”

“Plain and simple, legislators should not be interfering with the doctor-patient relationship.” Durr said, “We can’t have legislation that has doctors worried that if they discuss treatments for illnesses that aren’t approved by mainstream media with a patient afraid of being punished.”

“Bills like A-1884 that interfere with the doctor-patient relationship show that the Democrats scream of “my body, my choice’ applies only to procedures approved of by the DNC and mainstream media.” Durr said, “If this bill came across my desk as governor, it would be vetoed on arrival.”
