(Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) — Following last week’s Senate Finance Committee hearing, over 85,000 Americans signed 314 Action’s new petition to investigate and impeach Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his dangerous tenure as Secretary of Health and Human Services. The signatures were collected following RFK Jr.’s disastrous hearing on Thursday, amassing over 80,000 in less than 48 hours from grassroots supporters and people with a background in health, science and tech.
The new petition follows Senators and the Democratic Congressional Doctors Caucus joining together to call for his removal.
“We are the antidote to the pseudo-science movement. While RFK Jr. takes a wrecking ball to public health, it’s clear that the majority of Americans trust vaccines and believe in science,” said Shaughnessy Naughton, President of 314 Action. “Since taking office, RFK Jr. has undermined our top health officials, employed anti-vaxxers, and destroyed public health agencies. It’s time for RFK Jr. to listen to the calls of the American people and Congress members. If the President of the United States refuses to fire him, he must resign or be removed.
Last week, new polling showed that voters across political parties believe that vaccines should be more widely available and agree that RFK Jr. is making it harder to receive them. Additional polling also found that voters trust Democrats significantly more on health care and vaccine policy than Republicans.
