Shortly after **Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.**, was confirmed as HHS secretary, Citizens MAHA (Mobilizing Advocacy to Heal America) filed a petition asking HHS and FDA to “suspend and revoke emergency use authorization and biologics licensure for mRNA Covid-19 vaccines and to conduct a comprehensive safety review due to unprecedented adverse events.” The 66-page petition was signed by **Ethan Augreen**, a member of the Libertarian Party who has run for two local offices in Colorado.

“This petition presents substantial evidence of safety concerns, manufacturing inconsistencies, and regulatory gaps in the approval process,” the [document](https://downloads.regulations.gov/FDA-2025-P-0436-0001/attachment%5F1.pdf?ref=fdaweb.com) says. “To uphold public health and regulatory integrity, an immediate suspension is warranted pending a full safety review, followed by withdrawal if safety concerns are confirmed.”

The petition specifically requests these actions:

- immediately suspend all EUAs and BLAs for mRNA Covid-19 vaccines, including those manufactured by Pfizer/BioNTech, and Moderna, pending a full safety reassessment;
- establish an independent safety review board with experts in vaccinology, epidemiology, cardiology, neurology, and toxicology, free of financial conflicts of interest, to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the vaccines’ safety data;
- revoke administrative extensions granted to Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna for postmarketing safety studies and enforce immediate compliance with outstanding postmarketing requirements related to myocarditis, pediatric safety, and long-term adverse events;
- withdraw EUA and BLA approvals if the independent safety review confirms that the vaccines pose risks that outweigh their benefits or are inconsistent with EUA and BLA standards;
- mandate full disclosure and public release of all validated safety signals and safety data, including findings from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, V-safe, EudraVigilance, and other pharmacovigilance systems, ensuring transparency in regulatory decision-making;
- reevaluate the 5/17/2021 [petition](https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2021-P-0460-0001?ref=fdaweb.com) from Children’s Health Defense asking that Covid-19 vaccine EUAs be revoked “in light of newly available evidence on mRNA vaccine safety risks and regulatory failures”; and
- open an internal fraud investigation through the HHS Inspector General to determine whether Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna engaged in willful misconduct and fraudulent misrepresentation in securing EUA and BLA approval for their vaccines and if sufficient evidence of fraud or misconduct is found, refer the findings to the Justice Department for enforcement under the False Claims Act.

“The petitioner asserts that continued authorization of mRNA Covid-19 vaccines without immediate suspension poses an unacceptable risk to public health,” the petition says. “The requested actions will ensure regulatory transparency, restore public confidence, and prevent further harm.”

The petition lists many instances of what it says are reasons why the vaccines should be withdrawn. It also presents regulatory arguments in favor of the vaccines and its rebuttals to those arguments. And, it lists possible alternative steps that could be taken and why it considers them to be insufficient.
