Tell RFK Jr. to resign NOW

Robert Kennedy Jr. is throwing the nation's public health into crisis with his anti-vaccine policies.

Petition to Congress: We urge you to call on RFK Jr. to resign. His anti-vaccine and anti-science policies are endangering the health of all Americans. We also urge you to oppose all unqualified nominees for CDC and HHS positions. SIGN THE PETITION! Robert Kennedy Jr. is throwing the nation's public health into crisis with his anti-vaccine policies. Trump's Health and Human Services (HHS) Director is ignoring scientific consensus, endangering the lives of children, and making his outlandish conspiracy theories into public policy. RFK Jr. fired the CDC Director after she reportedly refused to act as a rubber-stamp for his dangerous health policies. Then, he installed an acting CDC Director with no medical or scientific background who advocated for unproven COVID treatments. In a scathing New York Times op-ed, Senator Bernie Sanders demanded that RFK Jr. resign because of his "crusade against vaccines" and anti-science policies. Over 1,000 current and former HHS workers also spoke out and sent a letter to Congress calling for RFK Jr.'s resignation. There is only one way forward to save America from a public health emergency and countless unnecessary deaths: RFK Jr. must step down. Sign the petition: Urge Congress to call on RFK Jr. to resign! "The reality is that Secretary Kennedy has profited from and built a career on sowing mistrust in vaccines," Sen. Sanders wrote in the Times. "Now, as head of H.H.S., he is using his authority to launch a full-blown war on science, on public health and on truth itself." The Surgeon General in Florida under Governor Ron DeSantis just said the state will end all vaccine mandates. RFK Jr. and Trump's far-right, anti-science ideology and disinformation campaigns will lead to fewer children being vaccinated, and so expose all children to serious risks. The American health emergency is coming if nothing changes at HHS. Our leaders in the House and Senate must immediately join Senator Sanders and call on RFK Jr. to resign.
