RFK Jr. is a completely unqualified conspiracy theorist who is putting newborn babies at risk.
The reckless decision to end a proven vaccine recommendation has no scientific basis.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.
Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.
