Dear John,
This is what Trump’s America looks like. Over 10,000 federal health workers were fired last week. Scientists, doctors, and public health experts at the FDA, CDC, and NIH had their entire lives turned upside down, many of them learning they were fired from security guards at the door.
These weren’t bureaucrats sitting in offices doing nothing. These were the experts keeping us safe from disease outbreaks, approving life-saving medications, and ensuring our public health system functions. The very people we depend on to fight pandemics, regulate drugs, and protect our communities were ripped from their jobs because Trump and his billionaire cronies want to gut the federal government.
The consequences are catastrophic. Cancer researchers? Fired. The FDA’s top vaccine official? Fired. Experts responding to measles and bird flu outbreaks? Fired. Trump and his radical allies are gutting our ability to respond to public health crises, all in the name of “shrinking government.” But let’s be clear: this isn’t about efficiency, it’s about destroying the agencies that protect everyday Americans.
We cannot sit back and watch Trump dismantle the country. No Dem Left Behind is fighting back, working to elect leaders who will protect our public health system, not tear it apart.
Every dollar we raise fuels this fight to stop Trump’s dangerous agenda before it’s too late. Donate now to help us fight back before more lives are put at risk. We can’t afford to lose this battle. Chip in today.
In Solidarity,
The No Dem Left Behind Team
