The “Guardians of Public Health” program is billed as “the most ambitious recruitment effort by 314 Action in history,” according to a Feb. 28 news release.
The group has pledged to spend $25 million by 2030 to meet its goal. Hawaii Gov. Josh Green, MD, is co-chairing the effort nationally.
There are currently 27 Democratic physicians serving in state legislatures, six in the U.S. Congress and one governor.
“Electing doctors in state and federal positions across the country is the best way we can fight against RFK Jr. and everyone else promoting his dangerous agenda. We need to replace his cronies with doctors who will put the health and safety of their community first — and I’m proud to be on the frontlines of this crucial work,” Dr. Green said in the release.
