Oppose RFK

The nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services poses a severe risk to public health practices in the United States and globally. Kennedy holds fringe beliefs unsupported by scientific evidence, particularly regarding vaccines. Experts warn that his confirmation would significantly undermine public health efforts crucial to safeguarding the wellbeing of all Americans. A coalition of over 700 health professionals and scientists from prestigious institutions like Yale and Harvard has expressed grave concerns about Kennedy's lack of relevant experience or expertise to lead a department with over 80,000 employees and a $1.6 trillion budget. He is simply unqualified for this critical role overseeing vital public health agencies. Furthermore, over 15,000 individuals have signed a petition urging senators to reject this nominee due to his skepticism of vaccines and other unsubstantiated views that contradict established medical consensus. Confirming Kennedy risks eroding public trust in health authorities and jeopardizing hard-won progress in disease prevention and control. In the interest of protecting public health and upholding scientific integrity, I urge you to oppose the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services. His fringe beliefs and lack of qualifications make him an unacceptable choice to lead the nation's health efforts. Please prioritize evidence-based policymaking and public wellbeing over ideological agendas.
