The committee&#8217;s chairman, Sen. Mike Crapo of Idaho, voiced his support for Oz ahead of the vote Tuesday, saying he has &#8220;years of experience as an acclaimed physician and public health advocate.&#8221; Crapo added that the background makes Oz &#8220;uniquely qualified&#8221; for the role, while urging the panel to advance the nomination.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Democrats criticized Oz during the hearing, alleging that he had dodged taxes. The criticism added to earlier critiques among Democrats of his views toward abortion and concerns about conflicts of interests. Oz has pledged to resign from positions he holds at companies, including a drugmaker and supplement company, while divesting from healthcare companies as part of his ethics agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, the top Democrat on the committee, argued ahead of the vote Tuesday that given the chance to &#8220;assure the American people that he would not be a a rubber stamp for Republican plans to gut Medicaid and hike Affordable Care Act premiums&#8221; during Oz&#8217;s confirmation hearing, &#8220;at every turn he failed the test.&#8221; Wyden encouraged his colleagues to oppose the nomination, claiming that Oz has shown no ability or interest in &#8220;pushing back on the dangerous Trump healthcare agenda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The vote comes as the Finance Committee <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rfk-nomination-nomination-vote-senate-committee\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">voted narrowly<\/a><\/span> to advance <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/senate-to-vote-on-rfk-jr-s-confirmation-for-health-human-services-secretary\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Robert F.
