CALL TO ACTION (NOVEMBER 9, 2026) – With last Tuesday’s elections resulting in a major shift from Republican to Democratic control of Congress, some health freedom activists are throwing in the towel. But not us.
Sure, while there have been champions – and opponents – of health freedom causes in both parties, it’s true that the overwhelming majority of those advancing health freedom causes just happen to have the letter “R” next to their names. And it’s true that when the 120th Congress is sworn in at noon on January 3, 2027, Democrats will hold a solid majority.
But last time I checked, today’s date isn’t January 3rd.
And that means there’s still time – almost two months, in fact, to get some very important legislation passed. Call it a “lame duck” Congress, if you will. But a lame duck isn’t a dead duck.
For about four years now, we’ve been circulating a petition to amend the federal Civil Rights Act to add health status – including vaccination status – as a protected class. This would mean that nobody ever again could discipline someone, fire someone, or kick someone out of school for refusing to take a vaccine or any other medical intervention.
But we’ll never get this done without you.
We’ve tried shopping it on our own, but legislators want to hear from their constituents, not a public interest law firm.
The committee in Congress tasked with proposing changes to law is the Senate Judiciary Committee. Here are the current majority members of that committee, with links to their contact pages:
Chuck Grassley (Chair, Iowa)
John Cornyn (Texas)
Mike Lee (Utah)
Ted Cruz (Texas)
Josh Hawley (Missouri)
Thom Tillis (North Carolina)
John Kennedy (Louisiana)
Marsha Blackburn (Tennessee)
Eric Schmitt (Missouri)
Katie Britt (Alabama)
Ashley Moody (Florida)
Darline Graham (South Carolina)
If you live in any of these states, please email (or call, or both) your senator(s) on this committee with the following message (or similar):
Dear Senator __________:
As your constituent, I am writing today to ask you to pass an amendment to the Civil Rights Act that would provide protection against discrimination on the basis of health status, including vaccination status. This amendment, titled The Health Freedom Protection Act, is currently being promoted by We The Patriots USA, a nonprofit public interest law firm that advances litigation in defense of Constitutional and civil rights. To date, they have received thousands of signatures in support of the amendment from people all across the nation.
I would like to arrange a meeting, or at least a call, with you to discuss how we can get this amendment proposed and passed before the new Congress takes office on January 3, 2027. I would like to invite a representative of We The Patriots USA to join the meeting or call as well. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you,
_____________
