The effort was coordinated by Dr. Mary Talley Bowden and includes signatories such as Dr. Peter McCullough, Louisiana Deputy Surgeon General Dr. Sean Troxclair, U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, former U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Tucker Carlson, and myself. The full list is at the bottom of this article.<\/p>\n
The letter argues that current federal actions have fallen short of the health-freedom movement\u2019s stated goals and calls for the removal of mRNA\/gene-therapy-derived vaccine technologies, termination of the COVID-19 PREP Act declaration, repeal of the PREP Act, an end to pharmaceutical direct-to-consumer advertising, and reforms addressing conflicts of interest and coercive healthcare incentives.<\/p>\n
Below is the full open letter and list of signatories:<\/p>\n

Open Letter Regarding the Removal of the mRNA Platform<\/h1>\n
Dear Secretary Kennedy and President Trump,<\/strong><\/p>\n As influential leaders within the MAHA and health freedom movements, we are writing to object to policies under your oversight related to the mRNA platform, and to call you to act on our policy goals.<\/p>\n While the centerpiece of the MAHA and health freedom agenda has been removal of mRNA shots, you have failed to take decisive action on this front despite overwhelming credible evidence to the harm of this technology. Instead, your policies related to mRNA technology are neutered and self-defeating, putting pregnant women and children at risk, misleading parents and eroding their rights, and failing to help those harmed by vaccines.<\/p>\n If you continue to ignore our central issue of removing the mRNA platform, the MAHA and health freedom movements will withdraw their support of you, and you will face the political consequences.<\/p>\n We are writing to express deep concerns about policies emerging from HHS, the CDC, and the FDA. Specifically, we object to:<\/p>\n Removal of the mRNA platform from the market remains one of the central goals of the grassroots medical freedom movement.<\/p>\n Millions of concerned citizens set aside partisan differences and identities to support the historic MAGA\/MAHA alliance. Instead of decisive policy actions on these core issues, we see distractions, linguistic misdirections, and watered-down announcements that avoid serious action on the deadly mRNA injections.<\/p>\n Despite the Executive Order from August 10, 2026 reducing the recommended vaccination schedule from 17 to 11 types of vaccines, it simultaneously elevates pneumococcal and HPV shots into the \u201cuniversal core recommendation\u201d. The elevation of HPV shots to universal core recommendation is surprising given Merck just reached a $50M settlement\u00b9 with 200 plaintiffs who alleged the Gardasil HPV vaccine caused autoimmunity. In addition, the EO promotes the unconstitutional notion of \u201cshared\u201d decision making between the federal government and parents with respect to the mRNA and some additional vaccines. This Orwellian language does not belong in a free society.<\/p>\n We do not need more data to determine whether mRNA products should be removed from the market. The data are already in from multiple credible sources, including over 4,550 peer reviewed publications, the Pfizer documents released through Aaron Siri\u2019s lawsuits, the VAERS and V-safe datasets, and data from foreign governments. These sources document catastrophic levels of deaths and serious injuries from the mRNA injections, as well as reproductive harm, including approximately 400% increase in miscarriage rates.<\/p>\n You stated that the shots were removed from the CDC recommendation for pregnant women. Yet pregnancy remains listed as a \u201chigh-risk\u201d health category in the revised FDA policy for mRNA shots. It is especially troubling that the new versions of these injections are recommended for all pregnant women, even though this platform has never been tested and proven safe in pregnancy.<\/p>\n Pregnant women have not been made safer by this linguistic shift. Removing the mRNA injection from CDC recommendations for pregnant women and healthy children is meaningless when the American Academy of Pediatrics, to which the vast majority of pediatricians belong, still recommends all babies get a mRNA shot.<\/p>\n Further, the CDC still recommends the shots for every child except those labeled \u201chealthy.\u201d Those outside of this category include children with minor ailments such as an acute illness or allergies. The risks of these shots far outweigh any benefits, particularly given they now carry an FDA warning for increased risk of myocarditis and pericarditis in children.<\/p>\n Parental choice is not realistic when parents are not getting informed consent on the true risks of these products. CDC language appears to erode parental rights. Even for healthy children, the CDC frames the decision as one that parents must \u201cshare\u201d with healthcare providers\u2014including pharmacists who lack authority to treat patients. By treating the decision to inject a child with mRNA as a \u201cshared decision,\u201d while treating routine injections as the default, a dangerous legal precedent is being set that assigns powers to the federal government that have historically belonged solely to parents.<\/p>\n The CDC\u2019s COVID shot policy claims to be evidence-based. However, no evidence has been provided\u2014and none exists to our knowledge\u2014showing that the categories of people labeled \u201cvulnerable\u201d under this policy would benefit from mRNA injections. A formal Citizen Petition authored by Children\u2019s Health Defense, asking to properly relabel the COVID-19 vaccines by Pfizer and Moderna as \u201cEUA Countermeasures\u201d is pending with HHS since December 8, 2025.<\/p>\n Under the PREP Act declaration for COVID emergency, the products that went on the market de novo as \u201cEUA Countermeasures\u201d \u2013 a non-investigational legal status \u2013 cannot be declared \u201csafe, effective and fully approved by the FDA\u201d without complying with the investigational pharmaceutical product requirements under the applicable federal law. The PREP Act was extended by the Biden Administration in December 2024 and upheld by you to date to last until December 31, 2029. The COVID-19 injections never underwent legally valid investigational assessment for safety and efficacy, being subject to only emergency distribution requirements, since the PREP Act precludes use of bio-chemical compounds in clinical investigation. This Petition gathered a record number of public comments in support of it (over 104,000). Your failure to respond to this Petition speaks louder than any placating HHS \/ Trump Administration messaging on vaccine schedule issues in advance of the midterm elections.<\/p>\n Conflating clearly established risks with an automatically assumed benefit from a product that remains a poorly regulated, liability-free EUA Countermeasure under the PREP Act emergency declaration defies both scientific reason and common sense.<\/p>\n We did not fight to place you in positions of leadership so that our clearly stated policy goals would suffer a \u201cbait and switch\u201d that rebranded the grassroots powerful objection to the damaging mRNA platform as a concern about coloring agents in Skittles. Health freedom is not the possession of Secretary Kennedy or his advisors. Health freedom agenda arose from the voices of millions of those impacted by the harmful government policies during the pandemic.<\/p>\n The MAHA\/health freedom vote was a historic game-changer. Neither Republicans nor the Democrats could have prevailed without this critical swing vote.<\/p>\n Health freedom voters can and will walk away if we continue to see inaction\u2014or condescending non-policy\u2014on our core issues.<\/p>\n If you continue to ignore the centerpiece of our policy agenda\u2014removing all mRNA products covered by PREP Act emergency declarations entirely from the market\u2014you will pay a political price. We will run our own candidates at the state level, and we will support other challengers and sponsors who share our values and advance our draft bills at the federal level for the midterms and for 2028.<\/p>\n We ask you to deliver our actual policy goals in the near term, or face the political consequences:<\/p>\n Deborah Adams, RNExecutive summary<\/h2>\n
