We have less than 60 days left with a razor-thin Democratic majority in the Senate. Tell senators to block the MAGA loyalists Trump is picking to serve in his Cabinet.

Dear MoveOn member,

Donald Trump has picked anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. For a moment, imagine the COVID-19 pandemic response under his leadership.

This dangerous nomination is a threat to the health of all Americans, including our children. RFK Jr. doesn't listen to experts; instead, he traffics in fringe, extremist ideas and outrageous conspiracy theories.¹ He is simply unfit and untrustworthy to combat future public health crises, fund lifesaving medical research, and make decisions that affect our health-care access and quality.

In this role, RFK Jr. will be nothing short of a loyal yes-man to Trump's reckless schemes to take away Medicaid from millions, repeal the Affordable Care Act, raise prescription drug prices, and put our children's health in jeopardy. Add your name telling Senate Democrats to reject his nomination now.

Matt Gaetz has already withdrawn from being considered for attorney general, because of the concerns coming from the Senate and the general public about his serving in this position.² We have the momentum on our side and have to show our support to Senate Democrats to keep going and hold the line against these dangerous Cabinet picks.

Trump has picked his most loyal allies as Cabinet members to enforce his authoritarian agenda and disrupt the most essential services for everyday Americans. His nominees are self-serving, they are corrupt, and they present a real threat to our democracy.

Our federal agencies will face major dysfunction under the direction of Trump's unfit and immoral appointees. Will you sign the petition now demanding the Senate prioritize the well-being of Americans?

 Tell the Senate to BLOCK conspiracy theorist RFK Jr. before he jeopardizes our public health.

From our health care to our children's education, everything is on the line. This is the moment for Senate Democrats to do everything they can to protect our essential government programs and services by rejecting Trump's dangerous nominees.

There are less than 60 days until Trump takes office and there's a Republican trifecta, and soon they'll have the power and agency to do whatever they want. But in the next couple of months, Democrats still have a majority in the Senate and can slow down this process.

It's clear that if these nominees are given the reins of vital government agencies, every American will be left to suffer the consequences. We can't allow Trump to select MAGA loyalists who will defend him at all costs and do anything to actualize Project 2025.

We need to pressure the Senate to reject Trump's extremist nominees who seek to enact his radical Project 2025 agenda. Will you join us by adding your name?

Make no mistake: Trump's Cabinet appointees have no real interest in serving the American people. Predatory corporations will be the ones that profit under their leadership, while working families face skyrocketing prices and fewer essential services like health care.

Trump is trying to create a society where the rich get richer and the working class have to pay even more out of their pockets, no matter who gets hurt along the way. It's up to us to stop him when we can.

The consequences of this nomination will touch nearly every household in the country. RFK Jr. is against the science that keeps people healthy—under his leadership, people will get sick. We won't watch in silence while Trump rams through his nomination.

Thanks for all you do.
