As if there isn't enough to be angry about, but for anyone tired of DC bullshit: Casey Means has NO business being Surgeon General. She’s a wellness TikTokker peddling raw milk and anti-vax fairy tales while women pay the price with risky birth control scares. Her nomination’s stuck in the HELP Committee right now, and if we don’t flood those senators’ inboxes, this unqualified hack gets the nod to steer our public health ship straight into the iceberg.

Get off your asses, grab the letter and senator list below, and hit ‘em hard—copy, paste, send. Your voice matters: use it, or regret it when the next outbreak hits.

It doesn't matter where you live. You have every right to reach out to these Senators. Those who are represented by members of this committee will get the most mileage out of contacting their senator directly. The rest can still make their voices heard.

Subject: Please Oppose Confirmation of Casey Means as Surgeon General

Dear [Senator's Name],

I am writing as a concerned veteran and constituent to urge you not to vote to confirm Casey Means as Surgeon General. While our public health system needs reform, her lack of current clinical experience and controversial views raise serious medical concerns that could endanger Americans, especially women and children.

Ms. Means graduated from medical school but left residency without completing it, has held an inactive medical license since 2019, and has no recent practice as a physician. This leaves her unqualified to lead public health responses, such as infectious disease outbreaks, where proven expertise is critical.

Her public statements amplify these risks: she has questioned childhood vaccine safety despite overwhelming evidence of their efficacy in preventing diseases like measles and whooping cough; advocated raw milk consumption, which the CDC warns carries high risks of bacterial infections like E. coli and Listeria; and raised alarms about hormonal birth control without balancing its proven benefits in preventing unintended pregnancies and managing conditions like endometriosis.

As a "wellness influencer" with ties to alternative medicine promotions, she also faces questions about financial conflicts that could undermine trust in evidence-based guidance. Confirming her would set a troubling precedent, prioritizing ideology over science-backed leadership.

Please use your position on the HELP Committee to oppose this nomination. Veterans and families like mine rely on credible public health leadership.

Thank you for your service.
