HHS is asked to affirm CDC's non-partisan and scientific integrity. HHS should improve emergency procedures and alerts. HHS should take vigorous action to remove online material that targets federal workers, including "DEI watchlists." A response from Kennedy is requested by Sept. 2. Kennedy is charged as being "complicit in dismantling America's public health infrastructure and endangering the nation's health by repeatedly spreading inaccurate health information." Actions cited include ousting CDC vaccine advisory board members, questioning measles vaccine safety, and terminating critical CDC workers, which have contributed to harassment and violence experienced by CDC staff. HHS did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The deliberate destruction of trust in America's public health workforce puts lives at risk. We urge you to act in the best interest of the American people-your friends, your families, and yourselves,
