Our Mission

RFK Jr. Watch is a project of 314 Action to expose the most dangerous Health and Human Services Secretary in history. Since his confirmation, RFK Jr. has dismantled the CDC, fired thousands of federal health workers, canceled billions in medical and scientific research, and overseen the worst measles outbreak in decades. He’s undermining public health and transparency, dramatically reducing funding and shattering confidence in science and expertise, with deadly consequences:
