Applaud West Coast Governors’ Bold Vaccine Partnership

In a powerful stand for science and public health, the Democratic governors of California, Oregon, and Washington have launched the Western Health Alliance — a first-of-its-kind partnership to safeguard access to vaccines and protect millions of people from dangerous political interference.

This alliance will develop its own immunization guidelines based on science and medical expertise, not ideology. The move comes as the Trump administration and RFK Jr.’s CDC sow chaos by politicizing vaccine policy, firing career scientists, and replacing experts with anti-vaccine activists.

By standing together, Governors Gavin Newsom, Tina Kotek, and Bob Ferguson are ensuring that families in their states can continue to rely on safe, effective vaccines to protect against serious disease. With more than 50 million people across the three states, this alliance has the power to preserve trust in vaccines, protect public health, and push back against extremism that puts lives at risk.

Add your name to applaud this bold West Coast leadership, defend vaccines, and stand up for science-based public health!
