An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Protect Public Health Science and Hold RFK Jr. Accountable

35 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

Stand up for public health science and take action against the dangerous misinformation coming from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. His anti-vaccine campaign has real consequences: measles outbreaks are spreading across communities that had been protected for decades, a diarrhea outbreak is sickening children, and screwworm infestations are threatening livestock and human health. These are not abstract policy disagreements — people are getting sick and dying because of deliberate lies about science. Dr. Anthony Fauci dedicated decades to protecting Americans from infectious disease. The attacks on him are politically motivated and designed to discredit the public health infrastructure that keeps us safe. Undermining that infrastructure doesn't make anyone freer — it makes us all more vulnerable. I want you to defend federal public health agencies, protect the scientists who work in them, and support a full investigation into whether RFK Jr.'s promotion of false science has caused measurable public harm. The American people deserve accountability, not a platform for quackery in positions of power.
