As this inaugural issue will show, if there is one thing you should know as we go into 2026, it’s that CHD is not slowing down. In fact, we’re picking up speed. In the closing weeks of 2025, we launched innovative litigation challenging the PREP Act and a Citizen’s Petition demanding that the FDA revoke all licenses for the Pfizer BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines. And that was just in the final few weeks of the year. While the dizzying achievements of 2025 are a testament to what can be done when we stand united, I feel very confident in saying that 2026 will be an even bigger year for us. The wind is now at our back. We have unprecedented opportunities to safeguard our most critical resource - our children. I hope you’ll find the Quarterly CHD Newsletter informative and useful—as a guide to what is happening in our space and as a document of what your support has made possible. Thank you for being part of the effort to protect children’s health and defend truth. I look forward to all that we will achieve together in this new era. With gratitude, Mary Holland
