Say NO to RFK Jr. to lead Health and Human Services!

January 10, 2025
As parents, there’s nothing more important than our children and family’s health. From routine physicals, to a common cold, to a devastating diagnosis—we safeguard our children and family the absolute best we can. We should expect the same from our leaders! Donald Trump’s nomination for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (a.k.a. RFK Jr.), is grossly unqualified and a dangerous pick to be put in charge of safeguarding our nation’s health and must be stopped!

August 1, 2024
Two-weeks ago, I got a panicked call from my teen son. He had dislocated his knee at Judo practice, couldn’t get up, and didn’t know what to do. I told him to call an ambulance, then I hopped in the car to go to him. As I drove there, I was—of course—extremely worried about my son, but, if I’m...
