RFK Jr.’s Autism Comments: Brittany Cartwright, Rosie O’Donnell, Dani Bowman & More React

Brittany Cartwright, Dani Bowman, Rosie O’Donnell and more stars are speaking out against Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s comments on autism. The Health and Human Services Secretary is facing backlash for his comments on autism that he made on April 16 during a press conference, where he claimed “autism destroys families” and called the disorder an epidemic among other things. “Love on the Spectrum” star Dani Bowman spoke out against the politician’s claims, telling NewsNationthat she was “disgusted” with his comments. “To generalize and say none of us can work, date or contribute to society, is completely false,” she said. “I have a job. I do pay taxes. I’ve dated I have a master’s degree.” Brittany Cartwright, autism advocate Holly Robinson Peete and Rosie O’Donnell also spoke out against RFK Jr.’s claims.
