Trump Declares War Against the Vaccine Status Quo
In the press conference last Monday the President, along with Sec. Kennedy, FDA head Marty Makary, NIH head Jay Bhattacharya and CMS head Mehmet Oz, annihilated the orthodox narrative about autism and vaccines. The President and his staff validated much of what the parents of vaccine-injured children diagnosed with autism have been saying for years.
The President has said that parents of children with autism have been lied to, gaslighted and vilified for telling the truth about what happened to their children.
For perhaps the first time ever, the federal government has recommended a treatment, Leucovorin, for the physical symptoms of autism
He mentioned he has known at least four children who were developing normally and then regressed into autism following vaccines.
He said there is obviously an epidemic going on and that it has to be something in the environment that children are exposed to.
The President said that the genetic research of the last twenty years has been a waste of time and that the causes on autism must be environmental.
He said that mercury must be taken out of vaccines.
He said that aluminum must be removed from vaccines.
He said that the MMRV vaccine should not be used.
The hep b should not be given before 12 years old.
He said the measles, mumps, rubella, (MMR) should be broken up into separate shots for safety reasons, which has been the practice in Japan for a generation.
He said that multiple shots given to children should be broken up into four or five visits.
He unequivocally said women must not take Tylenol Acetaminophen/Paracetamol) while pregnant, or give it to their infant children.
The President couldn't have made it clearer that he and his administration believes vaccines are a major, if not the major, cause of autism.

Big Court Win in NY to Protect Medical Exemptions
Federal District Court Judge Gary Brown ordered the Oceanside (New York) School District to readmit 16-year-old high school student “Sarah Doe.” Oceanside Superintendent Phyllis Harrington, Ed. D. denied Sarah a medical exemption from vaccine mandates to attend school even though 6 different physicians had all asserted that any further shots could do serious physical harm to Sarah, possibly even kill her.
Sarah had a religious exemption until 2019 when Andrew Cuomo and the Democrats repealed the religious exemption in New York. Her family chose to get her vaccinated, but she developed a range of debilitating immune disorders. Under doctors’ orders they stop vaccinating one hep b shot short of the complete schedule.
Sarah is represented by Attorneys Sujata Gibson and Chad Davenport who were provided by Children’s Health Defense. More than 400 people attended the trial.
Federal judge Brown directed attorneys for both sides to focus on the arguments in relation to New York law which says that, “If any physician licensed to practice medicine in this state certifies that such immunization may be detrimental to a child's health, the requirements of this section shall be inapplicable until such immunization is found no longer to be detrimental to the child's health.”
Judge Brown repeatedly directed attorneys to respond to the findings of the Federal Second Circuit Court, the appellate level court for New York, that has ruled that neither schools nor the Departments of Health, have any legal authority to question or override the opinion of the attending physician. This simple reading of the plain language of the law undercuts the entire current system in NY that allows school officials with no medical training and consulting physicians hired by schools to override the medical exemption decisions made by the treating physicians.
Attorneys for Oceanside played an extremely dirty and not very bright game.
They referred to Sarah’s documented injuries as “alleged.”
They tried to argue that Sarah should not be granted a medical exemption because she could be a threat to other students with medical exemptions, even though children with active cases of hepatitis b, which Sarah does not have, may not be excluded from school according to NY law.
They tried to imply that since the school district required Sarah to get dozens of doses of vaccines in a very short period of time that it is uncertain which shot caused her injuries, therefore she should still be required to get another hepatitis b injection.
And the most odious was the school district’s attorney's claim that Sarah had no health issues since they found pictures online of Sarah diving into a pool!
It will be interesting to see if Oceanside has the audacity to appeal Judge Brown’s decision to the Second Circuit.
NEW YORK TAKE ACTION!

Big Win in NY for Right of the Disabled to Use the Communication Method of their Choice
Big win! The NY Assembly passed A7363, The Communication Bill of Rights for People with Disabilities, this means that disabled people get to pick the communication method, including spelling and typing, that works for them, not what bureaucracies are willing to support. We still have to get it through the Senate and get the Governor to sign it, but it passed 134-0,
This is a first-of-its-kind bill in the United States, and we hope this is the beginning of a national trend. The Senate is down for the year, so we need to go back in January, but it looks very promising.
Crucial to the passage of the bill in the Assembly was the advocacy of spellers and typers who went to Albany to show the legislators what they can do, and they blew the legislators away. Spellers and typers included Elizabeth Bonker of Communication 4 All, brothers Trevor and Tyler Mason, and Abby Newbold.
We had a meeting with a close aide to Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie. She and her assistant were both in tears within three minutes. The assistant got so verklempt she had to excuse herself, the boss teared-up two more times. Then she looked at us and said, "Carl's going to pass this." And she was right.
Many thanks to bill sponsor, Assemblyman Angelo Santabarbara, who is the father of an adult son with autism, and former Assemblyman Tom Abinanti, who is also the father of an adult son with autism.
Here is the simple and short yet powerful text of the bill:
§ 13.45 New York state communication bill of rights for individuals with disabilities. In order to ensure that each person with a disability is able to lead a life of dignity, all persons with a disability shall have the right to communicate in their preferred manner and utilize any communication supports that meet their needs, and all staff and providers under this section, shall ensure and acknowledge such rights.

Albany Advocacy Day, 5/14/25
We had a great day in Albany on Wednesday at our Spring Advocacy Day and Rally. Many thanks to all the good people who shlepped to Albany and made themselves seen and their voices heard. Hundreds of people came and thousands of meetings, office visits, and letters were delivered to all members of the legislature, especially the leadership and the Governor.
Someone famous once said “80% of success is just showing up.” That is a basic rule of grassroots political action. If you are out of sight, you are out of mind. And if you can be seen you can also be heard. Mission accomplished.
If you support this type of event and the work we are doing to protect you and your children please make it possible for us to do so. The bus alone costs $3200. We make a point of not bombarding our wonderful community with endless appeals for donations, but we can’t do it without your financial support. Please be as generous as your means allow so we can continue this work for you and your family.
We would especially like to thank Assemblymember Jaime Williams (D-Canarsie) for speaking at our rally. Williams is the sponsor of two of our critical bills: the Education for All Act that would protect medical exemptions from vaccine mandates to attend school by letting children’s doctors make the decision not bureaucrats, and the Let Us Work Act that would compel New York City to rehire the workers fired for refusing the COVID shot. Given the overwhelming influence the drug industry has over the Democrats, these are courageous acts by Asm. Williams. And she has our sincere and profound thanks.
And many thanks to our speakers who inform us and inspire us to action, especially Mary Holland of Children’s Health Defense, Naomi Wolf of Daily Clout, Michael Kane of Teachers for Choice, Bobbie Anne Cox of Uniting NYS, Shannon Joy of the Shannon Joy Show, Sophy Medina of Bravest for Choice, Jimmy Wagner of the Donald J. Trump Republican Club of Brooklyn, Elena Chin Diaz of Moms for Liberty, Congressional Candidate John Salka, and Sarah and Jane Doe.
We could not have done it without the generous support of Children’s Health Defense and MAHA Action.
We have four weeks left until the legislative session ends if we keep on pushing we can push forward our good bills, and once again stop the many bad bills out there like the “RFKJR Act” the mandatory adult vaccine database, several laws to allow drugs and vaccines to be given to children without parental knowledge or consent, mandatory hep b shots for college, mandatory Rotavirus shots for infants, mandatory flu shots for children and repealing the religious exemption for college and work.

OUR GOAL: PASS THE NEW YORK
HUMAN RIGHTS AGENDA
We have a bi-partisan slate of bills we call the Human Rights Agenda. All of the bills we are fighting for would restore rights we once had but were taken from us by the drug industry and their puppets in Albany.
Those bills are:
Restore the religious exemption from vaccine mandates to attend school. A right still enjoyed in 45 other states, and in New York up until 2019. A1358/S266 Take action and learn more here
Require a parent to be present when an immunization is given to a minor. This is already required by Federal law, but New York State simply ignores that. And three separate proposed laws take away parents' rights to even know what medical procedures are done to our children. A3455/S3799 Take action and learn more here
Allow people injured by mandated vaccines to sue governments that mandated the vaccine, If a government requires people to get a vaccine, then that government must take legal responsibility for any injuries caused by the mandate. S5910/A4993 Take action and learn more here
Let Us Work Act, Make New York City rehire all workers fired for refusing the COVID-19 shot. A3686 Take action and learn more here

STOP SEN. BRAD HOYLMAN'S "RFKJR ACT"
Sen. Brad Hoylman just named his bill to make it mandatory to enter all adult vaccine records into the State Database the RFKJR Act (Registry for Keeping Justified Records Act.) The point is to know who to punish in the future. A765/S453a Take action and learn more here
STOP THE WORST CHILDREN’S HEALTH BILL EVER
