Reject unqualified Surgeon General nominee Casey Means, protect public health

To: Rep. Brown, Sen. Husted, Sen. Moreno

From: A constituent in Cleveland, OH

May 8

The nomination of Dr. Casey Means for Surgeon General should not proceed. Dr. Means has expressed concerning views that run counter to established medical consensus on issues like vaccines and the role of the pharmaceutical industry. Her advocacy for alternative medicine approaches lacks solid scientific grounding. As the nation's top doctor, the Surgeon General must uphold evidence-based practices and promote public health policies rooted in rigorous research, not unproven fringe theories. Means' affiliation with figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., known for spreading misinformation about vaccines, is highly troubling. The American people deserve a Surgeon General committed to safeguarding public health through proven, mainstream medical guidance. I urge you to reject this nomination and select a qualified candidate who will advance sound, science-based healthcare policies without an ideological agenda. Putting public wellbeing first must be the top priority.
