The Ad Titled “Charlatan” Highlights RFK Jr.’s Role in Samoa’s Deadly Measles Outbreak While He Built An Anti-Vax Cottage Industry
January 27, 2025
(PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA) — 314 Action today launched a $250,000 digital ad campaign to persuade 8 GOP Senators to oppose RFK Jr. for HHS. The ad titled “Charlatan” highlights RFK Jr.’s deadly role in Samoa’s measles outbreak while pocketing millions of dollars on anti-vaccine misinformation. The ads will target GOP Senators Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Joni Ernst (R-IA), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Susan Collins (R-ME), Thom Tillis (R-NC), John Curtis (R-UT), and Mike Rounds (R-SD).
President and Co-Founder, Shaughnessy Naughton said 314 Action was launching the latest ad campaign to amplify the real truth behind RFK Jr. and warn Senators about the serious consequences on our nation’s health.
“RFK Jr.’s recent financial disclosure proved what we already knew. He’s a charlatan who’s built a multi-million dollar cottage industry on misinformation and anti-vaccine rhetoric that killed kids and parents while he and his business partners pocketed 10’s millions of dollars.”
“Allowing Robert F. Kennedy to maintain a financial stake in anti-vaccine lawsuits while running our nation’s Health and Human Services department is unethical and dangerously irresponsible.”
“We’re demanding Senators on both sides of the aisle reject his nomination for HHS. If history is right, Senators who vote to support RFK Jr. will have blood on their hands.”
314 Action has been leading the fight against RFK Jr.’s nomination to be the Secretary of HHS. Last week, the organization announced the third phase of a six-figure, multi-pronged campaign to stop RFK Jr. from leading HHS while educating the American public of the dangers RFK Jr. poses to the nation’s public health. This includes television and digital ads against RFK Jr. in the DC area as well as targeted ads in key GOP Senators’ states. Earlier this month, 314 Action joined Governor Dr. Josh Green and Congress members with medical backgrounds to warn against RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine stance.

The Digital Ad Campaign Will Sound a 5 Alarm Fire on RFK Jr.’s Dangerous and Deadly Record
January 17, 2025
(PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA) — 314 Action today announced a 60 second ad spotlighting Robert F. Kennedy’s role in Samoa’s deadly outbreak of measles ahead of his Senate confirmation, will run as a digital ad to raise awareness and sound the alarm to Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)—in addition to eight other Republican Senators in other key states—on RFK Jr.’s disastrous record.
This is the 3rd phase of 314 Action’s six-figure, multi-pronged campaign to stop RFK Jr. from leading HHS while educating the American public of the dangers RFK Jr. poses to the nation’s public health. Shaughnessy Naughton, the Founder and President of 314 Action said the organization has taken on the responsibility of appealing to Senators to oppose RFK Jr. because of what’s at stake.
“We believe that sensible Senators, including Democrats and Republicans can come together in the best interest of the American public and reject RFK Jr. for Secretary of Health and Human Services,” said Shaughnessy Naughton, President and Co-Founder of 314 Action. “It cannot be understated how much of a threat Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is to Americans. His deliberate and reckless disinformation campaign led to the 2019 deadly measles outbreak in America Samoa—which killed 83 and infected over 5,000 people. There’s no doubt that RFK Jr. will endanger the lives of millions and damage our health care system for years to come. He cannot be trusted to follow the science, facts, and data to make crucial public health decisions.”
The ads feature Dr. Josh Green, Governor of Hawaii, joined by other health care professionals, describing the devastation RFK Jr. directly caused in Samoa by spreading medical disinformation that led to the death of 83 people, mostly young children. Dr. Green speaks about his personal experience and the gravity of the destruction he saw in Samoa—due to RFK Jr.’s misinformation.
314 Action has been leading the fight against RFK Jr.’s nomination to be the Secretary of HHS. Last week, 314 Action hosted a press conference with Governor Dr. Josh Green and Congress members with medical backgrounds to warn against RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine stance.

In December, the organization announced a six-figure digital ad campaign against RFK Jr., with the first ads targeting Facebook ads aimed at five GOP senators who are more likely to oppose the nomination.

[Nadine Telle Salle]: We saw children dying…
[Dr. Josh Green]: We went to Samoa to vaccinate a country.
In the months leading up to that, RFK Jr. had spread so much disinformation, that the country stopped vaccinating.
And that caused a tragic and fatal spread of the measles.
[Felea’i Tau]: We saw the families and the children, who were already sick.
[News Anchor]: Some overseas charities began shipping children’s coffins over to Samoa to cover for a local shortage.
[Samoan Mother]: It’s the most complicated and painful thing in life.
[Dr. Josh Green]: RFK Jr. went to Samoa and legitimized fake health groups—that killed children.
[Dr. Heath Chung]: So, you had a whole huge outbreak of a preventable infection because of misinformation.
[Dr. Josh Green]: And why?
Why, RFK, did you do that?
[Dr. Health Chung]: I think we have to be really smart about who we put in power.
