Urgent: Remove Kennedy as HHS Secretary to Protect Public Health

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The recent appointment of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services poses an immediate and severe threat to public health in our nation. His actions since taking office have already begun to undermine critical health initiatives and put American lives at risk. Kennedy's policies are actively harming public health. He has restricted Covid vaccine eligibility for adults under 65, potentially leaving millions vulnerable to a virus that has already claimed hundreds of thousands of American lives. In Florida, he has terminated vaccine mandates in schools, exposing our children to preventable diseases. Perhaps most alarmingly, he has cut $500 million from immunization research, crippling our ability to respond to future health crises. These are not mere policy disagreements; they are decisions that will have real, measurable consequences for the health and lives of Americans. By restricting access to vaccines and cutting funding for crucial research, Kennedy is effectively gambling with the lives of our citizens. The urgency of this situation cannot be overstated. Every day that Kennedy remains in office is another day that harmful policies are enacted and critical health protections are dismantled. We need immediate action to remove him from this position before more damage is done. I urge you to use every tool at your disposal to push for Kennedy's removal. This includes calling for congressional hearings, initiating investigations into his policy decisions, and publicly demanding his resignation or removal. The health and safety of our nation depend on swift and decisive action. Time is of the essence. We cannot afford to wait while more Americans are put at risk. Please act now to protect public health and remove Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from his position as Secretary of Health and Human Services.
