Informed choice

Health freedom

The organizations I help lead or advise, with my role and dates for each. Their positions are theirs; this page states only what I do.

The principle is informed consent: medical decisions belong to patients and parents, and the rules that govern them should be made in public. Different organizations pursue that through state legislation, federal policy and international bodies.

Reading this table

My role in an organization is not an endorsement of every statement it publishes, and its statements are not mine. Stand for Health Freedom lists me among its emeritus leaders; the Global Wellness Forum and MAHA Action describe their own work on their sites.

The confirmation campaign, 2025

Six people standing together in a marble corridor at the Capitol, Sayer Ji at the center in a dark suit and red tie. — At the Capitol during the confirmation push, February 2025 — in my words that March, “members and supporters of our rapidly expanding coalition the Global Wellness Forum who joined forces to help get RFK Jr. confirmed.” From “The Miracle of Grassroots Power” (February 5, 2025).

January–February 2025. Stand for Health Freedom, which I co-founded, ran the grassroots campaign for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s confirmation as Secretary of Health and Human Services. By my account, 130,000 emails had reached senators by February 5 and more than 150,000 by the vote, with calls to Senate offices peaking above 600 a minute. The Senate confirmed him on February 13, 2025, by 52 votes to 48. I wrote about the mobilization on February 5 and about the vote the day it happened.

International work

Codex Alimentarius, Seoul, March 24–28, 2025. I attended the 55th session of the Codex Committee on Food Additives (CCFA55) in Seoul, Republic of Korea, as one of the National Health Federation’s three delegates, with NHF president Scott Tips as head of delegation and Dr. Tia Kansara. Codex, run jointly by the FAO and the WHO, sets the food standards the World Trade Organization treats as the international reference. The NHF delegation opposed the committee’s turn toward cell-cultured and insect-derived “food”; the committee’s final report summarizes those objections in paragraph 42 without naming the delegation. Tips credits Kansara and me with “real-time reporting, photography and video, research, interviews, and interactions with other Codex delegates.” I wrote before the trip that I was going “as a delegate, not a dissenter,” representing the grassroots MAHA movement, and have since described the journey as work undertaken as chairman of the Global Wellness Forum.

From my account of the event, “The Day MAHA Went Global” (October 16, 2025).

European Parliament, Brussels, October 15–16, 2025. I spoke at the launch of Make Europe Healthy Again (MEHA) at the European Parliament, an event hosted by Dr. Maria Hubmer-Mogg with the support of MEP Gerald Hauser and the Patriots for Europe Foundation. Speakers included Dr. Aseem Malhotra, Dr. Robert Malone, former MEP Rob Roos, Mattias Desmet, Scott Tips and Dr. Tia Kansara. I said I was speaking for the communities of Stand for Health Freedom, GreenMedInfo and the Global Wellness Forum, and I joined MEHA’s international steering committee alongside Malone and Kansara, the Forum’s international partnership director. I wrote about the two days in “The Day MAHA Went Global — Our Stand in the European Parliament for Health Freedom.”

Litigation

Stand for Health Freedom is a plaintiff in Thomas v. Monarez (D.D.C., filed August 15, 2025), a challenge to how the CDC’s childhood schedule is classified. I describe it in a Substack summary.
