As our time permits, we will highlight some of his most alarming votes and actions on this page.

Recent alarming votes:

1. Tillis voted yes on the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for Secretary of Health and Human Sciences. Among other controversial and alarming qualities, Kennedy has worked for years to undermine vaccines, which historically have saved lives and reduced suffering for Americans. Polio survivor Sen. Mitch McConnell strongly opposed this nominee. With this vote, Tillis appears to support increasing the number of children who die of preventable diseases like measles.

2. Tillis voted yes on the nomination of Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence. Gabbard has no intelligence experience and felt comfortable meeting with (and refused to criticize) Bashar al-Assad, whose family (until Dec 2024) "ruled over Syria with an iron fist, with long documented reports of mass incarceration, torture, extra-judicial killings, and atrocities against their own people" (CNN). Even Sen Mitch McConnell could not vote for someone with a record of what he called "lapses in judgment." With this vote, Tillis appears to be comfortable undermining our national security.
