Dear Supporters,

First, thank you from the bottom of my heart for joining this vital cause to prevent RFK from becoming Health Secretary. Your signatures and voices are already making a difference. Together, we’re standing up for science, public health, and the well-being of millions of Americans.

I wanted to share an update: we’ll be sending this petition directly to four influential decision-makers:

John Thune, a Senator from South Dakota, the next Senate leader.

Charles Schumer, U.S. Senate Majority Leader from New York. As one of the most powerful voices in Congress, his leadership could steer public opinion and political outcomes.

Hakeem Jeffries, representing New York’s 8th Congressional District, is a strong advocate for justice and equality. His support can amplify our message to protect communities.

Mike Johnson, representing Louisiana’s 4th District, has significant sway in his state, where public health policies are critical. The current and future Leader of the House.

Each of these leaders needs to know the urgency of our cause. This isn’t just about politics; it’s about saving lives.

Why This Fight Matters
Every year, misinformation about vaccines and public health costs lives. Take Kelly, for example—a bright, vibrant life gone too soon because of preventable circumstances. Kelly’s story reminds us why leadership rooted in science and facts is non-negotiable. We can’t afford to let a voice that undermines lifesaving measures take a leading role in our nation’s health decisions. If Kelly was still with us, she would have started this petition.

Vaccines Save Lives
Vaccines have been one of the most significant medical breakthroughs in human history, saving an estimated 4-5 million lives annually according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Diseases like smallpox, once a devastating global killer, have been eradicated thanks to vaccines. Polio, measles, and whooping cough are now rare in many parts of the world because of widespread immunization. Vaccines are rigorously tested for safety and effectiveness, with robust systems in place like the CDC’s Vaccine Safety Datalink to monitor potential risks. By spreading trust in vaccines, we protect the most vulnerable among us—infants, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems.

Thank you for your continued support. Let’s keep fighting for a future where science saves lives, and leadership stands for the people it serves.

With gratitude and determination,
Fred
