Today, former Treasury Secretary @LHSummers showed why he was forced to step down as president of @Harvard: a lack of humanity and judgment. 1/4

In a shockingly callous interview on @ThisWeekABC, Professor Summers proclaimed that the One Big, Beautiful Bill will cause “...2,000 days of death like we’ve seen in Texas this weekend.” Using the horrifying situation in Texas for cheap political gain is unfathomable. 2/4

He has turned a human tragedy into a political cudgel. Such remarks are feckless and deeply offensive. Professor Summers should immediately issue a public apology for his toxic language. 3/4

I hope the nonprofit and for-profit institutions with which he is affiliated will join me in this call. If he is unwilling or unable to acknowledge the cruelty of his remarks, they should consider Harvard's example and make his unacceptable rhetoric grounds for dismissal. 4/4
