"Full House" star John Stamos said that supporting nurses shouldn't be a political issue as he addressed social media backlash for Mar-a-Lago fundraiser.
A longtime supporter of working within the community, Stamos denounced any political affiliation with the gala in a message shared on Instagram, and encouraged his followers to instead donate resources to frontline workers. "Supporting nurses isn't political – it's essential." "I stand by the importance of healthcare, of service, and of investing in those who care for our communities."

"I accepted the invitation to emcee the Palm Beach Ray of Hope Gala – an evening dedicated to honoring and uplifting our frontline heroes," Stamos wrote. "This nonpartisan event supports The Academy for Nursing and Health Occupations, a 501(c) (3) organization that trains 350-400 nurses every year, directly addressing the critical shortage of healthcare professionals in Palm Beach County."
