HHS has terminated multiple federal grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), totaling around $18-20 million and for good reason. Consider their recent track record. They have presided over the greatest decline to the health of our children that America has ever seen.
The AAP has recommended that pediatricians provide gender-affirming care for children. In the summer of 2021, the AAP recommended that all students and school staff aged two and older wear masks in schools, despite no evidence that mask use would prevent transmission. These masks harm children's development by delaying or impeding speech, language learning, and emotional growth, as facial cues are crucial to development.
In 2025, the AAP issued its own COVID-19 vaccination guidance that diverged from federal policy, recommending COVID shots for all children aged 6–23 months. This puts children at risk for myocarditis and other severe adverse events from these dangerous injections - injections that are not safe for children, and do not stop transmission or infection.
The AAP continues to advocate various faddish trends that have caused real physical damage to our youth.
HHS notes that the AAP continues to use “identity-based language” and has lost touch with American families and children.
Thank you, Sec. Kennedy and HHS for taking this positive and vital step to ensure the health of our children.
